Gerritse Triples, Gryko Eliminates Kashat
Firas Kashat opened under the gun to 70,000, and Richard Gryko called in middle position. The short-stacked Dirk Gerritse called from the small blind, too.
The dealer fanned out a J♥2♦3♠ flop, and when Gerritse checked, Kashat continued for 115,000. Gryko called before Gerritse moved all in for 140,000. Both Kashat and Gryko called.
The turn 7♥ saw Kashat slow down, allowing Gryko to take over the betting lead, as he moved all in. Kashat was the covered player and made the call.
Dirk Gerritse: A♣J♣4♠2♠ 
Firas Kashat: Q♥10♥9♦8♣
Richard Gryko: Q♠Q♣10♦7♠
The river A♦ confirmed the triple-up for Gerritse, who improved to a better two pair on the river. Kashat had missed all of his draws, which meant Gryko won the side pot, and Kashat headed to the exit.
