Gill Up, Then Gill Out

[user38449]

Oliver Gill - 4th place finisher

Former chip leader Oliver Gill has just been eliminated from play, but it wasn't without a fight. Gill dropped as low as one big blind, but was able to chip back up to 84,000 in chips before being knocked out of the tournament by Annette Obrestad.

In his final hand, Obrestad opened with a raise to 30,000 and Gill reraised all in, a bet worth 84,000. Obrestad made the call and the following showdown ensued:

Obrestad: {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{8-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

Gill:

{J-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

The board then filled out {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{5-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

and Obrestad took down the pot with eights full, sending Gill to the rail in 4th place ($17,600 AUD).
