Gross Jams the River

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante
Jeff Gross
Jeff Gross

The board read {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{8-Spades}{k-Clubs} and the big blind had led out for 10,000 into a pot of around 14,000 on the river. Jeff Gross was casually getting a massage and looked as though he wasn't interested in the hand at all. However, he was the facing a large bet from his opponent.

Gross counted out his own stack and thought for a minute before announcing all in for just shy of 25,000. Now it was his opponent's turn to ask for a count. He thought there was no way Gross could possibly be bluffing in this situation and decided to throw his cards to the muck.
