Jonathan Taylor Back Down to Starting Stack
Gold bracelet winner Jonathan Taylor raises to 3,200 from middle position and John "Dr. Donk" Gallaher reraises to 7,000 total from late position. Taylor calls, then the flop comes . Taylor checks, Gallaher bets 8,000, and Taylor check-raises all-in, having Gallaher's remaining 58,500 or so covered. Gallaher gets a count, thinks a bit, then calls with for the nut flush draw.
Taylor turns over for a gutshot straight draw and will need some help in order to take this pot. The on the turn gives Gallaher his flush and leaves Taylor drawing dead. After the meaningless on the river, Gallaher takes the six-figure pot to double up.
John Gallaher - 145,000
Jonathan Taylor - 20,000
