Tureniec Bounces Back

[user75032]
[user75032]
Micheal Tureniec was the overnight chip leader after Day 3 and started plunging down the counts during early play on Day 4. He has halted his freefall (for now), but he had to suck out to do it.

Tureniec opened for 26,000 from late position. Zach Gruneberg reraised from the big blind to 76,000, then snap-called after Tureniec shoved for roughly 200,000.

Tureniec: {8-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}
Gruneberg: {A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}

Gruneberg jumped out of his chair and excitedly clapped his hands. He was safe on a flop of {9-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {3-Spades}. The turn {Q-Spades}, however, gave him a sweat as it brought four extra outs for Tureniec. With the crowd pressing in, Tureniec started chanting, "Jack! Jack! Jack!" and got his wish when the {J-Clubs} (the same jack of clubs that Sorel Mizzi asked for earlier?) hit the river to make a straight.

Gruneberg didn't give off much of a reaction, but Tureniec was happy to collect a pot worth 450,000 chips.
