Garg Busted After Roller Coaster of a Hand
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Lokesh Garg, Andy Hobson, and Tim Gilliam were all three all-in preflop, with Garg in for 50,000 from middle position, Gilliam in for 61,000 from the small blind, and Hobson had both of them at risk from the hijack.
Lokesh Garg: 
Tim Gilliam: 
Andy Hobson: 
Gilliam held on the 
flop, but the 
turn gave both Garg and Hobson top pair, and also gave Garg the nut flush draw. Gilliam found lightning in a bottle when the 
hit the river, however, and he took down the pot to nearly triple up, while Garg was busted and Hobson was left short.
