Grossed Out

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jeff Gross - Eliminated
Jeff Gross - Eliminated

After Jason Koon opened to 18,000 from the cutoff, and Glenn Lafaye flatted from the button, Jeff Gross made his stand with a three-bet shove to 206,000 out of the small blind.

Koon deliberated for a short while to suggest that his late position open was at least made with a decent hand, but the instant his hand went into the muck Lafaye snap-called the bet to put Gross at risk.

Lafaye: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Gross: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Gross had a few outs in the deck with big slick, but rather than racing for an above average stack, he was in bad shape against Lafaye's cowboys.

The board rolled out {7-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{q-Hearts} by the turn to provide the requisite sweat, as Gross could catch a ten on the turn to make Broadway, but the {2-Diamonds} on the river was nothing but a bright red brick.
