Over at the feature table, action folded to local player Christy Morkan on the button and he raised to 55,000. Barry Donovan was in the small blind and thought for a few moments before announcing that he was all in. The big blind folded and then Morkan snap-called.

Morkan: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Donovan: {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Donovan realized he had picked a bad spot even before the cards were turned over. That said, he could still win with a king or some hearts. The {2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} flop contained only one of the latter, while the {6-Diamonds} turn took away that possibility altogether. In order to stay alive in the Full Tilt Poker UKIPT Galway Main Event Donovan would need a king on the river, but he was left wanting as the useless {10-Clubs} peeled off.
