Gray Delivers a Double Knockout to Rake in a Mountain of Chips
Action in this Pot-Limit Omaha hand was caught on the river, with two players packing up to leave the tournament area. A big pot was heading in the direction of the excited Shellie Gray, who had apparently delivered the double knockout.
The board was 3♣9♣K♠5♦J♥. According to the players, quite a lot of chips already went in before the flop, but it was on the turn that all the money went in for the first of the all-in players, who was sitting on the button. The rest of the money for the other all-in player, who was in the big blind, went in on the river.
Button: A♣K♦6♠3♦ 
Big blind: A♠A♦9♠8♣
Shellie Gray: A♥Q♣10♣5♠
The big blind had the strongest hand preflop, but Gray flopped the flush draw and a gutshot. The latter came in on the river, giving her the nut straight.
Gray, who needed about three more hands to rake in all the chips she won, said she felt she had to be lucky after getting to seat down at Table 77, seat 7.
