Gooch Gone at Hands of Arora
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 1,000 ante
A short-stacked Jason Gooch raised to 10,000 in the cutoff and was met with a three-bet to 30,000 from Kyle Arora in the small blind.
Gooch chose to commit his remaining 18,000 chips to put himself at risk.
Jason Gooch: A♥K♥Q♠10♦
Kyle Arora: 8♥8♠6♣6♥
The flop came K♣3♥3♣ pairing Gooch's king and giving him an added flush draw.
The Q♦ gave Gooch an even better two pair of kings and queens, but the 3♠ on the river counterfeited him, giving Arora the win with threes over his pocket eights for a full house to eliminate Gooch in ugly fashion.
