Binger Takes Grimes to Town

We picked up the action a little late, joining as the dealer put the turn card down on a {4-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {3-Spades} {5-Clubs} board. Al Grimes was heads up, and he checked to Michael Binger who bet 75,000. Grimes took his time thinking before making the call, and the {J-Hearts} filled out the board on fifth street. When Grimes checked again, Binger fired a final bet of what looked like 230,000 (though it may have been 305,000 instead), and Grimes tanked for ages before calling.

It was a bad call. Binger tabled {7-Hearts} {8-Hearts} for the six-card nut straight, and we'd never get to see what Grimes held. He mucked, and that pot moves Binger even higher, all the way up over 2.1 million.
