Rough Start for Gathy

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

Michael Gathy seems to have a rough start of the tournament. He already lost about half of the 50,000 he received at the start of the day. Things didn't go well for Gathy in the last hand either.

Thomas Kornechuk raised from late position to 900 and Gathy called in position. The player in the small blind got along for the ride. The flop came down {2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and it checked to Kornechuck. He bet 1,100 and Gathy called. The player in the small blind was out and they saw the {2-Diamonds} turn appear as they proceeded heads-up.

Kornechuk checked to Gathy this time and he tossed in a bet of 1,300. Kornechuk called and the river was the {A-Clubs}. Both players checked and when Kornechuk opened up {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} Gathy mucked his hand.
