Nick Grippo Eliminates a Player

Nick Grippo raised to 3,800 from middle position and button reraised all-in. Grippo quickly made the call and showed {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} vs. his opponent's {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

The flop of {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} improved both hands, but Grippo held on when the turn and river brought the {4-Clubs} and {6-Clubs}.

Grippo now has 150,000.
