Gilbert Gets it in Good
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
There was a player in middle position who opened to 2,000 before James Gilbert put in a three-bet to 6,500. The next player to act in the cutoff cold called and the remaining players folded back to the original raiser who got out of the way. They were heads up to a flop.
The A♣3♣Q♥ flop hit the felt and Gilbert slowed down and checked. The cutoff didn't waste a moment before moving all in for 11,200. Gilbert went into the tank for a moment but eventually put in the chips and got the good news.
Cutoff: 8♣9♣
James Gilbert: K♠Q♣
Gilbert had to fade the clubs but the turn and river would both be offsuit threes and he would make a boat before getting the pot pushed his way.
