Garcia Gutted by Philbort

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

We missed the elimination of Poland's Jose Carlos Garcia, but we learned a few details after the fact.

According to Dani Stern, it happened when Philipp Gruissem raised the button and Garcia three-bet jammed from the big blind for a little over 100K. Gruissem called with {a-}{q-}, which was ahead of Garcia's {7-}{8-} offsuit.

Garcia managed to pull ahead when the {k-}{j-}{7-} flop delivered him a pair, but when an {a-} spiked on the river it put a dagger through his heart.
