Samuel Trickett tanked for about two minutes from the small blind, but he and the rest of the table eventually folded to let Gilmore have the blinds and antes.
David Benefield raised to 71,000 under the gun, but that was not going to get through. Right next door, Jeff Williams three-bet to 215,000, and that was no good either.
