Gathy Makes It Big

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Michael Gathy
Michael Gathy

Two time bracelet winner Michael Gathy put his pedal to the metal on the hand the bubble would break. He opened under-the-gun to 2,400 and received a call from big stack Ryan Riess in middle position and Matthias De Meulder in the big blind.

De Meulder checked to Gathy on {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} and Gathy made a 3,600 continuation-bet. Riess made the call, De Meulder folded. The {K-Hearts} came on the turn and now Gathy made a 11,600 bet. Riess again called but when faced with a 33,000 bet on the {7-Hearts}-river, he folded after some thinking.
