Gresel Doubles in the First Hand

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Two-time WPT National Winner Paul Gresel started off the day with just 5 big blinds. In the first hand, he committed his stack of 19,500 to the pot and Christopher Frank looked him up.

Paul Gresel: {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Christopher Frank: {J-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The {J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop paired Frank up and give him a big lead in the hand.

"See you in Amsterdam," laughed Gresel, referring to the WPT National in Amsterdam next week as part of the MonteDam Swing.

The {Q-Hearts} on the turn left Gresel drawing to the remaining aces and he found one on the {A-Clubs} river.

"Well, not yet" Gresel smiled as he collected the pot.
