One of the day’s chip leaders, Raphael Gall has just been eliminated by Antonio Angeles. But before the bust out, we have to back track on how he was initially chunked down.
According to eye witnesses, Gall and Christian Ortanez were all in on the flop of A♣ J♣ 6♣. Ortanez had 10♣ 8♣ for a flush, and Gall had A♥ J♥ for top two pair. With the river offering no help to Gall, Gall lost around 50K chips to Ortanez.
Not long after, Gall was against Angeles in a hand that started with a 3200 raise by Gall. Angeles three-bet to 6600, and Gall shoved with around 70K behind. Angeles made the crying call and their cards were revealed.
Gall: A♦ 8♦
Angeles: Q♥ Q♦
With the board running 4♣ 5♥ 9♦ 3♠ 10♦, Gall was booted and Angeles climbed to around 185K chips.
