Robert Gill

Robert Gill raised from under the gun to 150,000 and Peter Bigelow called from the button.

Robert Gill: AA

Once Gill saw Bigelow's trips, he remarked "How does that happen, It is the third time my aces have been cracked this tournament, how am I still in" as he saw he was behind with pocket aces. Bigelow confessed he "didn't see the raise and thought it was a blind".

The Q river sealed the double for Bigelow, leaving Gill will 80,000 left.

The next hand saw Gill forced all-in the big blind and he was eliminated in 21st place.
