FSPC Event #14 (Day 3): Immediate Final Table Fireworks, Seth Gilson Eliminated In 10th Place ($12,038)

2018 Florida State Poker Championship
Event #14 | $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 24 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/30,000)
Total Event #14 Entries: 564
Event #14 Players Remaining: 9


Seth Gilson (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) just earned his third five-figure score of the year, after reaching the final table in two of the events during Hard Rock's DeepStack Series.

There would be no waiting for action at the final table, as just a few hands in, we'd see the first player eliminated.  Jonathan Jaffe opened with a raise to 65,000, and after folds from Salorio and Merda, Seth Gilson would three-bet shove (for just under 900,000).  Jaffe quickly made the call, and would be in dominating position when the cards were tabled:

Jaffe: K K
Gilson: Q Q

Runout: A 7 2 3♠ 9

Having Gilson's suits covered became even more important after the all diamond flop, as Seth was drawing to just two outs on the turn and river.  He was unable to find a queen to make the comeback, and exited the final table as our tenth place finisher ($12,038).
