The original raiser called too, making it a four-way pot to the {6-?} {6-?} {9-?} flop. The action checked around to Grace who bet; the button was the only caller.

Grace bet out on the {3-?} turn as well and his opponent called. The river was a {3-?} and Grace bet again -- and this time his opponent folded, showing pocket queens. Grace declined to show, and declined also to tell any bloggers what he was holding...
