Henning Granstad Takes a Hit

Preflop, Henning Granstad raised to 3,500 and a player from the button raised to 8,500. Granstad called.

On a flop of {Q-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {6-Hearts}, Granstad checked to his opponent, who bet out 12,000. Granstad raised to 50,000, and his opponent went all in for 72,300 total. Granstad called.

Granstad showed {Q-Diamonds} {6-Spades} and his opponent showed {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}.

Only running sixes would give Granstad the hand. The {5-Clubs} on the turn sealed the hand, making the {5-Spades} on the river irrelevant.

After the hand, Granstad moved down to 107,400 in chips.
