Mass Exodus on Table 14

Level 8: 600 / 1,200 ante: 1,200

With one open seat on table 14, Michael Gathy puts his hopes on A 6 for the gutshot and nut flush draw on a T 9 7 flop. Kristof Mato looks him up with the T 9 and boats up on the T turn to make the 3 river a formality.


One hand later, Trong Hieu Ngo looks up two short stacks with Q J and flops top pair to suddenly cause four open seats.


"What did I miss?" Muhammad Shamsudin jokes when he arrives back to his seat with a monster stack at his disposal.
