David Gorr Eliminated in 7th Place ($24,600)

David Gorr - 7th Place
David Gorr - 7th Place
Hand #91 -

Tim Heath has the button in Seat 1.

Nali Kaselias opens with a big raise to 350,000 from under the gun. It passes around the table to David Gorr in the small blind, and he looks to be contemplating a tough decision. Working with a short stack, the raise represents almost all of Gorr's chips. He sits back in his chair, counting and re-counting his remaining stack. After a minute or two, he makes the flat call, and it's heads up to the flop.

The dealer spreads out {2-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs}. Gorr checks, and Kaselias asks him for a count. Gorr has about 180,000 left, and his opponent puts him all in. Gorr quickly calls, his tournament life in danger.

Showdown:
Gorr: {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds}
Kaselias: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}

Looking for an ace or runner-runner, Gorr fails to find anymore help as the turn and river come {10-Diamonds} and {7-Spades} respectively. He is eliminated in 7th place, taking home nearly $25,000 AUD.

After that knockout, Kaselias is up to 2,493,000 in chips.
