Grant Shows Gallagher a Higher Straight For Massive Double
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Terry Grant raised to 25,000 in early position and David Gallagher called in the hijack.
Grant continued for 35,000 on the J♥10♦6♠ flop, and Gallagher called. Both players then checked the Q♣ turn.
The river was the 9♥ and Grant moved all in for 280,000. "I'm going to need these," Gallagher said as he tossed in a few time banks. He eventually called, and Grant showed A♣K♦ for the nut straight. Gallagher mucked K♣J♣, and Grant earned the massive double up.
