Philipp Gruissem missing a double up chance against Mario Silvestri
Philipp Gruissem missing a double up chance against Mario Silvestri

Philipp Gruissem made a standard raise from the cutoff seat and it folded around to the tourney's current shortest stack Mario Silvestri who shoved all in from the big blind for 900,000. Gruissem called, showing {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}. Silvestri tabled {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{9-Spades}, hitting Gruissem's hand and keeping him in the lead. The turn was the {10-Diamonds}, though, swinging the advantage over to Silvestri. And the {Q-Spades} river gave the short stack the best two pair, enabling Silvestri to double up to about 2 million. Gruissem now has 3.11 million.
