"You've Got to Gamble to Win"
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Teun Mulder opened the hijack to 5,000, Sam Grafton three-bet to 22,000 from the small blind, and Mulder four-bet jammed as the covering stack for 115,000 effective. Grafton was uncomfortable but he shrugged as he called it off.
Sam Grafton: K?10? 
Teun Mulder: A?K?
"Aggressive," remarked Mulder as the 5?4?3? flop was a safe one for him as his ace-king remained in the lead.
Grafton called for a heart on the turn but he got an even better card as the 10? peeled off and he stayed ahead on the board-completing 9?.
The table had a laugh at Grafton's loose call-off as he defended himself, "You've got to gamble to win."
