Gruissen Crushed, But Not By Much!

The action folded around to Damon Lum who raised, only to see Gruissen Philipp reraise. It then went four-bet, five-bet shove, snap-call.

Lum: {a-Spades}

{a-Spades}

{a-Hearts}

Philipp:

{6-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

Both players hit on the board of {a-Clubs}

{a-Clubs}

{j-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{8-Spades}

, but Philipp's two pair lost by a long way against Lum's set of aces.

The margin between chip stacks however, was far narrower.

Philipp was all in for 63,300. Lum had 63,500.

Ouch.

That's about as painful an elimination as you can get - well, except for the bubble hand of this year's Aussie Millions Main Event.

Philipp is busto; Lum is up to 134,000 in chips.
