Gruissem Double Up

Philipp Gruissem opened with a raise to 110,000 preflop only to be three-bet by Stuart Tuvey to 275,000. Action folded back around to Gruissem who decided to four-bet all in and was snap called by Tuvey.

Tuvey: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Gruissem: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}

The flop spelled trouble for Tuvey when it came {6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. The turn was no help to dig Tuvey out either, as it came {3-Hearts}. He would need to catch one of the two remaining aces in order to regain the lead. Unfortunately for Tuvey, fifth street brought the {9-Clubs} and his chipped were shipped to Gruissem in the form of a double up.
