Gatliff Triples Finds a Triple
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
David Gatliff jammed for his remaining 5,100 and was called by a player in middle position. Derrick Johnson then jammed for 27,200 from the hijack, and the middle position player laid it down after some consideration.
David Gatliff: K♠J♣ 
Derrick Johnson: 8♦8♣
It was a coinflip scenario until the J♥9♥4♦ flop vaulted Gatliff into the lead and he held through the 9♣7♦ runout to secure the triple-up.
