Pot of the Night

Recently Gavin Griffin was moved to the same table as Shane "Shaniac" Schleger. It didn't take long for fireworks to ensue. Schleger raised preflop to 2,400 and was called by Griffin in the cutoff position. A player on the button immediately pushed all in for 7,875. Both Schleger and Griffin called.

Flop: {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Schleger bet 7,500. Griffin made the call.

Turn: {10-Clubs}

Schleger checked to Griffin, who bet 18,000. Schleger check-raised all in for 34,325. Griffin snap-called. Griffin had Schleger covered.

Schleger: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Griffin: {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Button Player: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

River: {8-Spades}

Griffin made his straight, but Schleger made his full house. The button player was eliminated and Schleger doubled up through Griffin. After the hand, Schleger is sitting with 105,000 in chips and Griffin is down to 14,000.

After the hand, Griffin looked over to Schleger and asked, "Would you like to buy the rest of my green?"
