Absolutely G-R-O-S-S River Card

Eike Seidel (no, not Erik Seidel) raised from the button to 45,000. Action moved to Christophe Gross in the big blind and he reraised to 115,000. Seidel took some time, but eventually moved all in for 404,000 total. Gross was right there to make the call.

Gross held the {A-Spades}

against Seidel's {4-Hearts}

.

The flop came down {A-Hearts}

and both players flopped a set. The turn card brought the {9-Spades}

and then the river card, well, it was only the one-out miracle Seidel was looking for in the {4-Clubs}

! The crowd on the rail jumped back and roared while Gross just sat there and counted down the chips he owed to Seidel.

Although he did take a blow for nearly half a million chips, Gross still has just over one million.
