Michael Gonzalez Eliminated by Johnnie Craig

Jun 30, 2017

Michael Gonzalez is short stacked and all in blind with Diamond KSpade 8, and he needs to improve to stay alive against Johnnie Craig’s Spade ADiamond A in the small blind. Gonzalez hasn’t looked at his cards, but he’s holding them up so everyone else can see them.

The flop comes Spade KDiamond QHeart 10, and the other players tell Gonzalez that he is “very live,” but don’t tell him that he flopped a pair of kings.

But the turn is the Spade Q, the river is the Heart 4, and Craig wins the pot with his pocket aces. Gonzalez lays his cards flat on the table so he can finally see the bad news for himself as he is eliminated.

Johnnie Craig  –  25,000  (83 bb)
Michael Gonzalez  –  Eliminated
