Grey Skies for Lawson

Five players limped to see a flop of {3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{Q-Clubs}. A player in middle position led out for 1,800, and both David Grey and Ted Lawson stuck around. The {J-Hearts} came on the turn, and this time Grey bet 9,000, Lawson called from middle position, and the other player folded. Both then checked the {Q-Diamonds} on the river.

Grey showed {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{6-Clubs} for jacks full of queens. Lawson showed two of his cards -- {2-Clubs}{4-Clubs} -- and mucked.

Grey moved up to 46,000 on the hand, and Lawson down to 10,000.

A couple of hands later, Lawson was eliminated. At the same table, Jason Mercier has also just been eliminated.
