The Proverbial Two Birds

Carter Gill - Eliminated
Carter Gill - Eliminated
This hand also occurred just before break.

A player under the gun limped into the pot, and further down the line, an opponent moved all in for 23,000 chips. Action came to Carter Gill, who looked down at {8-?} {8-?}, and he moved all in over the top for about 120,000. Everyone ducked out, but when the betting came around to the limper again, he instantly called, having both men covered. He showed down {A-?} {A-?}, while the short-stacked all-in tabled {6-Hearts} {7-Hearts}.

The board ran out {K-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {4-Clubs}. The two aces held up, and two players, including Carter Gill, were eliminated.
