Gruissem Doubles Again

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

After losing a sizable pot to Matt Salsberg, Philipp Gruissem moved all in from the small blind holding {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Theo Jorgensen, holding {a-Clubs}{2-Spades}, went deep into the tank, but eventually made the call.

The {7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop gave Gruissem a monster draw, and the {q-Spades} on the turn gave him the lead. The {5-Clubs} on the river gave Gruissem a flush for kicks and giggles, and the German doubled again.

Salsberg Times Out

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Philipp Gruissem opened to 120,000 on the button, Theo Jorgensen called out of the small blind, and Matt Salsberg defended his big blind with {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. The flop fell {7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, Jorgensen checked, Salsberg tossed out 125,000, and Jorgensen called.

The turn was the {3-Hearts}, Jorgensen checked again, and Salsberg checked behind.

The {j-Spades} completed the board, Jorgensen led for 500,000, and Salsberg tanked for over three minutes before the clock was called on him - by who, we don't know. Time expired before he made a decision, and his hand was declared dead.
