Gellman v. Millar

[user66118]

Daniel Millar and Philippe Gellman got a big pile of chips into the middle of the table preflop -- all of their chips, in fact. The stacks were close, so they waited till the board ran out to count them down. Cards on their backs:

Millar: {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

Gellman:

{K-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

Millar slammed his fist on the table at the sight of his opponent's overpair. And things wouldn't get any better on a board of {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

. Gellman's kings hold up, and he would soon find out that he had been the player at risk with the shorter stack. Not much shorter, though; Millar is left with under 8,000 and a big frown.
