Gary Fitzgerald

After a flop of Js4c3s with about 800K already in the pot, Gary Fitzgerald moved all in from the big blind for 625,000. Donald Jackson asked for an exact count and tanked for a while before he called with Ad6c for ace high.

Fitzgerald turned over 5h2d for an open-ended straight draw, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the 7s, the river card was the As, and Fitzgerald won the pot with a five-high straight to double up in chips.

Somebody congratulated Fitzgerald for the fortunate river card, and Fitzgerald responded with, “It’s easy playing short.”

Gary Fitzgerald  –  2,050,000  (14 bb)
Donald Jackson  –  2,500,000  (17 bb)
