Gathy Hits the Flop

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

The hand started with Michael Gathy opening to 25,000 from under the gun, before Ben Reason raised it up to 65,000 from the button. The blinds folded, before Gathy decided to move all in for 224,000 in chips. Reason made the quick call, as the cards were turned over.

Gathy: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Reason: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Unfortunately for Reason, the flop would come {Q-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} to give Gathy the lead with a bigger pair, and he would find no tens, when the board ran out the {7-Hearts} and {3-Diamonds}.
