Johnny Gagelonia Gets Tricky

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

Johnny Gagelonia limped in from late position, and the player in the cutoff raised to 400. Gagelonia limp-raised to 1,000 and his opponent thought for a minute before deciding to call.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and Gagelonia quickly moved all in for 1,500. His opponent snap-called.

Gagelonia tabled {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} and his opponent showed {j-Clubs}{10-Spades} for a gut-shot straight draw. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and the river was the {a-Hearts}, giving Gagelonia the double-up he was looking for.

Gagelonia finished in 15th place for $3,618 in this event two years ago and looks to top that this year.
