What's Eating Gilbert's Stack?
Zak Gilbert: (mucked, with feeling) /
Opponent gentleman: /
Zak Gilbert, who finalled a stud event here last year, is not having a terribly good day.
He was already pretty short when we saw him get involved in a three-way pot. One player folded on fifth street, but Gilbert and one other player made it all the way to seventh street - they both checked on the river. Neither player wanted to be first to turn over his hand, and eventually Gilbert's opponent revealed a mere K-J-8-4-2 low. We didn't quite catch Gilbert's hand before he mucked, but we do know that it involved a third five.
Gilbert plummeted further, to just 1,425.
