Aerts Busts Gathy In Huge Pot
Level 30
: 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
Michael "merla888" Gathy started the day second in chips but he has just been eliminated in 26th place after losing a huge pot to Pieter "XMorphineX" Aerts.
It started with a raise to 249,600 by Gathy and Aerts called in the small blind. The 
flop brought a check by Aerts, a bet of 540,000 by Gathy and a call. They checked the 
on the turn and Aerts then bet the 
river for 541,260.
Out of a stack of 8 million, Gathy raised to 1.62 million and Aerts moved all in. That sent Gathy into the think tank and he could not find a fold with the 
as Aerts scored the huge pot with 
for the nuts.
