Gascoigne Sent Packing by Packer, Spragg Stacks Bott
The action folded around to Ian Gascoigne on the button who shoved for a little over 15,000. Leslie Packer looked down at his cards in the big blind and liked what he saw, then called.
"Have you got aces?" asked Gascoigne.
Ian Gascoigne: K?Q? 
Leslie Packer: A?A?
"How does that happen? You just have aces in the big blind," continued Gascoigne.
The flop of 8?9?4? didn't change much, but the A? gave Gascoigne a flush draw while also improving Packer to top set. However, it wasn't to be for Gascoigne as the J? river meant he was eliminated.
On the table adjacent, James Bott shoved the last of his stack into the middle with pocket queens and was called by the pocket kings of Dan Spragg.
The runout changed nothing, and Bott was eliminated as Spragg's stack climbed to around 70,000.
