Wade's Super Hero Call Sends McGarity to the Dead Pool

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was heads up with over 175,000 in the middle and 9346 on the board when Jerry Wade checked and Mark McGarity went all in for 179,000.

Wade went deep into the tank and counted out the chips from his big stack. After several moments, he put them out in two stacks and turned over 32 for a pair of threes. McGarity did not like that and he turned over the dusty AK.

The river was Q and McGarity made his way to the payout table.
