Walker vs. Gay

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Kyle Gray opened for 45,000 from the cutoff and received a call from Andre Smith on the button. Nicholas Walker then three-bet to 114,000 from the small blind, Gay moved all in for 204,000 more, and Smith got out of the way. Walker hit the tank for a bit, during which time he tried to coax some information from Gay, and then wound up making the call.

Gray: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Walker: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Even had they not gotten it in preflop, we're guessing they would have on the {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop. Walker flopped top two pair, but of course it was behind the top set of Gay. The {J-Hearts} turn left Walker drawing dead, and after the {9-Hearts} was put out on the river, Gay was pushed the pot.
