Gao Gobbled Up

Jie Gao was crushed and then busted in the space of three hands.

Gao got it in good in the first hand, calling David Mijalkov's all in bet with {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} against his {K-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The flop of {a-Spades}{5-Hearts}{9-Spades} improved neither hand and Gao moved further ahead with the {q-Clubs} on the turn. Mijalkov had all but given up hope, reaching over to shake Gao's hand before the dealer produced the river {10-Clubs}, giving him a runner-runner straight!

Mijalkov was delighted and sat back down as the chips were cut out. Gao was left with just 150 in chips and managed to double up to 500, but there would be no miracle as he was eliminated a short time after.
