Gallo Gone as Kyte Adds Chips
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Giulio Gallo opened to 10,000 from under the gun and Jon Kyte three-bet the hijack to 30,000. When the action was back on Gallo, he shoved around 100,000, and Kyte snap-called.
Giulio Gallo: A♦Q♦ 
Jon Kyte: A♥K♦
Gallo was in trouble against the big slick of Kyte. and the 7♦8♣4♥ flop didn't offer much in the way of help. However, there was a way out on the 3♦ turn as Gallo picked up a flush draw.
A queen or a diamond was what Gallo needed, but neither came on the 9♥ river, which meant he hit the rail.
