Dinner Double for Shih

Kenny Shih raised to 250,000 under the gun and action folded around to Philipp Gruissem in the cutoff. He thought for a moment before putting in a three-bet to 585,000. The blinds got out of the way and Shih simply moved all in for 2.155 milllion. Gruissem called and it was off to the races.

Showdown
Gruissem: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Shih: {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

The proverbial coin was tossed and landed in Shih's favor as the board ran out {6-Spades}{K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Shih doubled to 4.94 just before the dinner break.
