The River Saves Griffin

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Gavin Griffin was all in after a series of bets preflop, and he got calls from three players. The flop came down {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts}, and Donald Yucius fired out. Both Christine Antoniuk and James Manning called, and the same happened on the {7-Clubs} turn. The river was the {j-Diamonds}, and Yucius quickly fired one more time. This time, Antoniuk got out of the way, but Manning called, saying "Merry Christmas" as he did it.

Yucius rolled over {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for the nut low and aces up, and Manning mucked. Once the side pot was shipped to Yucius, Griffin tabled {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for a rivered full house, which was good enough to take half of the main pot. Despite hitting that four outer, Griffin is still short with just 7,500.
