Gathy Risks Almost All

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante
Michael Gathy

With over 16,000 in the pot on a {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} board, the small blind checked, and Michael Gathy checked behind in middle position.

The {4-Diamonds} completed the board and the small blind led out with a bet of approximately 18,000. Gathy responded by moving almost all of his chips in for approximately 52,000, leaving himself just two small denomination chips behind.

His opponent tanked for several minutes while looking at the board, but ultimately sent his cards into the muck to concede the pot to Gathy early in the day.
