By the Grace of God

Just before the break, misfortune struck Richard Grace as he smacked his {A-?} {K-?} into kings, reducing him to 12,000 or so. Furthermore, he apparently does not even deserve a proper ID card for his trouble - while everyone gets a nice printed, laminated card with their number on it, Grace is for some reason only permitted a scrap of paper with his ID scrawled on it in marker pen.

Some slight reversal of fortune followed a few minutes after that nasty cooler, though, when he shoved to a 2,600 raise from big stack Dominykas Karmazinas. Karmazinas decided he was priced in, and it was an easy double up to 27,000 or so for Grace.

Grave: {7-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}
Karmazinas: {3-Hearts} {4-Hearts}

Board: {6-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {2-Clubs}
