Gao Outflops Ditoto

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Shouyi Gao opened to 1,500 from early position and was called by a player on the button. Isiah Ditoto then three-bet to 8,500 out of the small blind only to see Gao respond by four-betting to 20,000. The button player folded to send the action back to Ditoto who moved all in. Gao called with the effective stack to put himself at risk.

Shouyi Gao: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Isiah Ditoto: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Gao was in rough shape, needing to come from behind with a dominated hand to survive. He found immediate help, however, on the {q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop. Nothing changed on the {5-Clubs} turn or {6-Hearts} river to hand Gao a full double while dealing a crippling blow to Ditoto's stack.
