Milne In A Gross Spot

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Richard Milne
Richard Milne

Steve Gross and Richard Milne seem to be having a game to themselves for that last couple of hand. Milne has position on Gross and had just tangled in a hand where he bet 45,000 on the river of a board reading {5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

Gross thought for some time, clearly reluctant to release his hand but in the end he did. As Milne was gathering the chips Gross questioned him on whether had got there on the river. Was it a flush perhaps, or a straight? Milne remained tight lipped.

On the very next hand Gross opened for 16,000 and Milne three-bet him to 40,000. Gross made the call and they went to a heads up flop of {q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Both players checked to see a turn card {j-Spades}. Gross then bet 35,000 and this time Milne did show, turning over the {a-}{k-}. Gross returned the favour by showing his {a-}{q-}.
