Gathy Takes a Hit
Seven-Card Stud
Michael Gathy: 
/ 
Opponent: / 
The mission to claim yet another bracelet has taken a setback for Michael Gathy, as he just doubled up a short stack in a seven-card stud hand. Preflop, Gathy faced a completion and raised, the player next to him made it two bets, and Gathy called. The completer folded.
On fourth street, the short stack bet 500 with 300 behind, and Gathy raised to create the following showdown.
Gathy: 
Opponent: 
The buried queens of Gathy were slightly ahead, and he caught the 
on fifth and 
on sixth to improve to two pair. The player at risk found no sufficient help on fifth street (
) or sixth (
), but the 
on seventh completed his flush. Gathy picked up a blank and was sent back to less than half the starting stack.
