Grech Gets Got

In early position, Alfred Grech put in a first raise to 2,300. He got action in one spot, from Mark Casale in late position.

Heads up, the flop dropped {2-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Grech moved all in for his remaining 5,325 chips. Casale went into the tank for several minutes before finally putting in the call, turning over {5-Diamonds} {5-Spades}. It was a good call, as Grech showed down {K-Spades} {J-Diamonds}. The turn {10-Diamonds} and the river {3-Diamonds} did nothing to help the all-in player, and Alfred Grech is eliminated. Casale on the other hand is sitting with a healthy 46,000
