Leaoasavaii Licking Lips at Rivered Double

Danny Leaoasavaii in action
Danny Leaoasavaii in action

With the action on Danny Leaoasavaii under the gun, he moved all in for roughly 90,000. Tom Grigg made the call from middle position to put New Zealand's Godfather of Hip-Hop - Brotha D - at risk.

Leaoasavaii: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Grigg: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

With Leaoasavaii holding a slight advantage, he would unfortunately see a {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop to leave him with just two outs to improve. The {5-Clubs} on the turn changed little, but when the {3-Hearts} spiked on the river, a thunderous boom rocketed through the SKYCITY Auckland Poker Room as cheers, claps and hi-fives celebrated Leaoasavaii two-outer.

As Grigg continued to slide; now down to 550,000, Leaoasavaii soared over the 200,000-chip mark - much to the joy of the majority of railbirds watching on.
