Nick Grippo Moves Up Top; Five Tables Remain

May 24, 2017

Nick Grippo

Nick Grippo has another player all in and at risk late in the day. Grippo is ahead with Club AClub K but must dodge his opponent’s two live cards with Spade 9Spade 8. The Heart 10Club 7Diamond 5 flop gives his opponent an open-ended straight draw that gets there on the Club J turn. That card in turn gives Grippo a flush draw/gut shot draw for 12 rivers out, one of which hits the Club Q river for the knockout.

The hand ships Grippo the pot while moving him well into the chip lead.

Nick Grippo – 280,000 (140 bb)
