Gallagher Scoops Sizeable Pot

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

We arrived at the table to see three players in the hand and action on John Gallagher.

The board read {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Gallagher had started the action with a bet of 2,000. He was called by the opponent to his left and then raised by the player on the button to 5,000. Both Gallagher and his opponent made the call, seeing the {3-Clubs} fall on the river.

Gallagher kicked off the final round of betting, leading out with five yellow chips to the tune of 25,000. The opponent to his left snap-folded but the player on the button went into the tank.

A few moments passed and eventually, the player on the button gave up and Gallagher was awarded another sizeable pot.
