The board ran out A108K
K and Gera didn’t spike a five. He was eliminated and will have to buy directly into Day 2 for $4,300 to have a shot at adding a Card Player Poker Tour title to a resume that already has two World Series of Poker Circuit rings.

Nikhil Gera Involved In Unlikely Three-Way Chop
Oct 19, '19
Nikhil Gera raised to 800 from under the gun and was called by a player in middle position and the big blind.
The flop was 654 and the big blind checked. Gera bet 1,300 and both players called. The turn was the 7 and the big blind checked again. Gera checked as well and the player in middle position thought for about a minute before betting 2,300. The big blind called and so did Gera.
The river was the 8, putting an eight-high straight on the board and all three players checked. Gera showed QJ, middle position tabled AA and the big blind turned over 66.
All three players played the eight-high straight on the board and chopped the pot.
Nikhil Gera – 31,000
