Event 20: 8th Place - Gibbons

$1,000 + 90 + 500 Purple Chip Bounty No Limit Hold'em    

Joe Gibbons (Tarpon Springs, FL)

$7,217

On a flop of J 9 5 rainbow, fireworks ensued.

Michael Brown bet 65k.

Harrison Gimbel shoved for 419k.

Joe Gibbons shoved for 260k.

Michael Brown tanked, then called.  The hands were tabled:

Michael: T8 (open-ender)
Harrison: AJ (top/top)
Joe:  KJ suited (top pair, bad kicker).

The last two came 2 6 and despite picking up a flush draw on the turn, Joe whiffed the river and was busted in 8th place.

Harrison collected the monster pot and another bounty.  He's back to over 1.2 million and back in the chip lead.

Michael was left with about 400k.
