Griffin Gains Some Ground

As we came to Gavin Griffin's table, we saw that he was in the middle of a big pot. There was about 12,000 already in the middle, on a board that read {8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Griffin was heads up with an opponent in the small blind, who fired out 6,500 on the turn. Griffin thought for about 20 seconds before tossing in the call, and they saw a river of {5-Hearts}. Griffin's opponent tanked for about 30 seconds, before electing to check. Griffin quickly checked behind, and the cards were turned up.

Griffin: {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Griffin's suited connector paired up to beat his opponents ace queen, and Griffin dragged the pot to boost his stack to over 35,000.
