Event 15: 9th place - Grippo

$500 + $60 Deep Stack NL

Playing 40k/80k blinds with 5k antes:

Bob Depasquale opened for 240k and Chris Bonita moved all-in from the button. Bob thought about for a bit, then called all-in. Chris was ahead with aK off. Bob held AJ offsuit. The board rolled out 8 5 5 T T and both had two pair with Ace-kicker: Split pot.

"I had Ace-8" said Jason Young. That would've been a winner.

When action folded to him in the small blind, Lindell King moved all-in for 490k straight. Dave Zeitlin was in the big blind and must have thought Lindell was trying to steal his blind. He called, showing K4 off. Lindell held A8 suited. The board came A 9 8 5 2 and Lindell doubled up with two pair. Dave was left with ~1.15 million.

Dave Park limped in utg and then, after some time in the tank, Diane Grippo moved all-in. Everyone else got out of the way and Dave called, showing pocket Jacks. Diane held pocket 5s and was in bad shape. The board came Q 9 3 6 8 and Dave took the pot.

Diane Grippo finished in 9th place, earning $4,860.
