Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Michael Gathy
Michael Gathy

According to the table, Michael Gathy opened to 9,000 and was called by a first player and Justin Adams. A fourth player moved all in and Michael Gathy reshoved for a stack of around 180,000. The action folded back to Justin Adams who chose to make the call.

Holding {k-}{k-}, Gathy was in good shape to win the massive pot, facing {q-}{q-} for the initial all-in player and {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} in Adams's hand. However, a board {a-}{3-}{4-}{j-}{10-} gave the winning hand to Adams, who knocked out his two opponents and climbed to a huge stack worth 630,000.

Hutter raked in the big pot while sending Strelitz to the rail.
