Mike Gracz Advances to Round 2

It was down to heads up between Mike Gracz and Alex Katz. The flop came {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, and the pair got it all in the middle.

Gracz showed {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for the open-ended straight flush draw. Katz showed {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for two pair. The turn was the {A-Hearts}, and Katz was still alive. But the river brought the {7-Diamonds}, giving Gracz the straight and the match.
