Not Such a Tough Table After All

Gavin Griffin
Gavin Griffin

While we had once remarked that a table featuring Gavin Griffin, Ahn Van Nguyen and Michael Mizrachi was looking like the toughest in the room, the players at the table have proven us wrong. All three of the pros have been eliminated before four levels of play.

Gavin Griffin was the last to go. He was in the cutoff when an early position player had raised to 350. Griffin only had 1,275 chips left and he put them all in the middle, getting a call.

Griffin: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Griffin fell behind as soon as the flop brought {q-Spades}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs} onto the table. He was unable to catch up with a {2-Clubs} on the turn and a {9-Diamonds} on the river.
