Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
While 18 players returned after the break, this quickly became 17 as we were scouting the room for chip counts, arriving at Keith Gipson��s table just in time to witness his demise.
Gipson moved the last of his chips in pre-flop (around 35,000) with 
with Gabe Patgorski making the call from the big blind with 
.
��I��ll double you up,�� chuckled Patgorski good naturedly as the cards were turned over and the two saw they were racing.
Gipson grimaced and said ��It��s not good, I just saw the tip���� as the 
hit the window, with the rest of the board running out 
to send Gipson to the rail and bring the field down to 17 while Patgorski climbed to 225,000, just snagging the chip lead from Holz.
