The cards were all but rushed away and the dealer announced a seat open on table 20 seat 9, which prompted the departure of Jon Gurrutxaga. Oriol Gregori was the one that received the chips and was kind enough to explain the details in Spanish.
According to Gregori, he opened and called a three-bet by Gurrutxaga, Francesco Di Profio also cold-called the three-bet. On a queen-ten high flop with two diamonds, all players checked and another diamond on the turn saw a check-raise of Gregori and the push of Gurrutxaga. Di Profio folded and Gregori looked up his countryman with ![]()
for the made flush.
Gurrutxaga had aces with the
and the river was a blank. It won't be long to see the Spaniard back in action, however, as Gurrutxaga already re-entered.
