"The Cockroach Doesn't Die" - Grant Channels Inner Geller

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Calum Grant
Calum Grant

It may seem like favoritism, but Calum Grant is the gift that keeps on giving.

Action was limped preflop by an early position, before Grant pounced, shoving for slightly over 17,000 from the hijack. The button reshoved for 47,000, and action folded round.

Calum Grant: {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Button: {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}

"I'll take the chop. Two sixes on the flop please" said Grant, confusing the table.

The flop was unforgiving however, rolling off {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

The {k-Clubs} had Grant drawing very thin as his opponent took his stack back, maybe a second prematurely and certainly risking a jinx.

"King?" from Grant.

The river fell {k-Spades}, counterfeiting the Button and chopping the hand, to raucous laughter from the table and celebrations from Grant.
