Gilligan Lets It Go

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

On a flop of A?J?Q?, Ronan Gilligan made a bet of 1,000 from under the gun, and Mark Kilkelly check-called from the small blind.

The 5? turn saw Kilkelly check again, after which Gilligan fired a bet of 2,500. Kilkelly then swiftly pushed all his chips in the middle, covering the 33,500 stack of Gilligan.

Gilligan let out an expletive, took a few more looks at his cards, and threw them into the muck.

"It's too many big blinds," he added after the hand.
