Gribben Gone

Gribben: KO'ed
Gribben: KO'ed
Joel Gribben's backers are crying poor after he was eliminated at the hands of an unknown opponent on table 33.

The opponent raised it up to 7,500 preflop from early position and the action folded around to Gribben who reraised all in for 22,000 from the cutoff. The opponent called and the cards were rolled up:

Gribben: {A-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The flop of {3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{J-Hearts} put Gribben in the lead with bottom-top but his mood turned sour when the dealer produced the {4-Spades} on the turn to fill the opponent's straight!

By the time the {7-Hearts} came down on the river, Gribben was out the door.
