Tough River for Gagliano

Blinds: 3,500/7,000

It was a battle of the blinds when "rounder1420" moved all in for his final 95,000. Michael "Gags30" Gagliano was in the big blind, and he thought for bit before calling for almost all his stack.

"rounder1420": {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Gagliano: {a-Hearts}{7-Spades}

The flop of {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} gave "rounder1420" a straight draw, but also made a chop much less likely. A ten on the turn didn't change anything. but the {4-Diamonds} came on the river, giving "rounder1420" the outright win, and a big double up on the direct money bubble.

Since that pot, Gagliano has tripled up, but he is still the short stack on the bubble.
