Grace is Gone

Richard Grace just could not escape Rui Cao today. In their most recent encounter, Cao opened the pot with a raise, and the cutoff three-bet to 3,500 behind him. Over to Grace now, and he looked down at pocket queens and moved all in for just about 25,000. Cao then re-raised all in with his monstrous stack, good enough to put him heads up with a chance to knock off a dangerous player. He tabled ace-king, racing for the kill.

Grace would find the board unpleasant indeed. Cao managed to find a king to pair up, and the Brit could not climb back into the hand to stay afloat. He's been eliminated, while Cao vaults up to about 130,000, the biggest stack we can find so far.
