Good Game To Gold

Kevin Taylor

2006 Main Event Champion Jamie Gold has been eliminated. He was part of a five way pot that saw limps all the way around. The flop came down {5-Hearts} {q-Spades} {6-Hearts} , and it was checked around to Gold on the button. He instantly moved all in for 8,600, and Juan Lopez was next to act in the small blind. He tossed in the call, and everyone else folded. "I think I'm going to double you up" Lopez told Gold. Gold shot back with, "I doubt it I just have a draw."

Lopez: {10-Diamonds} {5-Clubs}
Gold: {4-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}

Gold would need a six or a two to survive the hand, but the turn brought the {a-Hearts} , and the river came the {q-Clubs} . Gold wished everyone luck, then made his way to the exits.
