"That's a Nice River"

Level 2 : 400/800, 100 ante

Over at the feature table, David "Doc" Sands opened for 2,400 under the gun and Philipp Gruissem, who was seated to his direct left, flatted. The rest of the players folded, the flop came down {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{8-Spades} and Sands methodically bet 3,700. Gruissem made the call and the {7-Diamonds} appeared on the turn.

This time Sands slowed down with a checked and Gruissem fired out 7,500. Sands, who is prone to take his time before acting, thought long and hard before dropping in a call. The {9-Clubs} river prompted another check from Sands and then he spent nearly three minutes in the tank before calling Gruissem's bet of 18,000.

"Full house," Gruissem declared and tabled the {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a rivered boat.

"That's a nice river," Sands admitted before double checking his cards and then sending them to the muck unseen.
