Level 20 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Garry Gates - 17th Place
Garry Gates - 17th Place

From under the gun, Michael Simon raised to 17,000 and John Coon reraised all in from the next seat for 51,500. Lori Nunes was in the hijack and attempted to reraise, but didn't put out enough chips so it was ruled just a call. Action then folded to Garry Gates in the small blind and he tanked for a few minutes. Eventually, Gates moved all in himself for about 91,000. Simon got out of the way at this point and then Nunes made the call.

Gates: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Nunes: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Coon: {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

Gates held the best of it, but that would all change as the flop rolled out {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} to give Nunes a set. Nunes bounced from her chair and gave a fist pump with full knee action as she knew she took a big lead in the hand.

The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and gave Nunes a full house. It left Coon drawing dead, but Gates could still hit a queen or a seven on the river.

The river completed the board with the {10-Clubs} and that was all she wrote for Gates as well. Nunes scooped the massive 260,000-chip pot and eliminated both players from the tournament.
