Gross Double Up

When action folded to Matt Vance in the small blind, he raised to 520,000. A call from Jeff Gross would cost him nearly all his chips, as he had only 590,000 to his name. After tanking for a while Gross simply called.

The flop came {8-Spades}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts} and Matt Vance announced he was all in. Gross stood up and confidently put his last 70,000 chips in the middle.

Gross: {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Vance: {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

Gross had been behind preflop, but found himself with two pair and a big lead afterwards. The turn was the the {j-Clubs} and Gross needed only to fade the river for a double up. The final card to hit the felt was the {5-Clubs} and Gross got a much needed boost.
