Lucky Break for Gregorini

We're not sure exactly how it came to this, but when we arrived at the table a raising war between Gianluca Gregorini (button) and another player (early position) had culminated in a preflop showdown.

Gregorini: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Gentleman Whose Identity Shall Remain a Mystery: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

These were no small stacks, either - with 27,500 to his name at the start of the hand, the gent with the sixes had still had almost his starting stack when he'd chosen to get involved.

Board: {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Gregorini tapped the table as he took possession of his opponent's chips, and the other headed for the door. At around 60,000, Gregorini is in contention for the chip lead at this early stage.
