Gathy Runs Into Sandberg's Set
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Michael Gathy raised to 16,000 in middle position and Evan Sandberg three-bet to 40,000 in the cutoff. Gathy called, and they saw a flop of 4♣Q♣K♦.
Sandberg then bet 12,000, and Gathy raised to 35,000. Sandberg called to see the 9♠ turn, where Gathy moved all in for 50,000. Sandberg called.
Gathy showed A♦A♥, but Sandberg had flopped a set holding Q♦Q♠. The river was the 3♠, and Gathy was sent to the rail.
"That's good news for us," tablemate Lara Eisenberg said as the four-time bracelet winner made his exit.
