Gillette Virtually Quadruples Up
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Danette Smith raised to 5,000 in middle position before Alfred Gillette put in his last 7,000 from the cutoff. Pierce McKellar called on the button, but Evan Sandberg then reraised to 23,500 in the small blind to chase away Smith and McKellar.
Alfred Gillette: A♣5♦
Evan Sandberg: 6♦6♣
Gillette remained behind on the K♣J♦4♥ flop, but he caught the A♦ on the turn to take the lead. The river was the 7♠ and Gillette stayed alive.
