Ortega Cleans Out Grise
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Gustavo Ortega raised from the hijack to 30,000. It folded to Benjamin Grise in the small blind, who decided to ship it for 200,000 even. Ortega wasted no time with a call and sent them to a showdown with Grise at risk.
Benjamin Grise: A♥10♥
Gustavo Ortega: A♠K♠
Grise's prospects looked grim against the better ace of Ortega, but the flop evened the battle as it came 3♣7♥2♥ to give Grise a flush draw.
The A♦ was not the card Grise needed, and the 8♣ did not convert on any of his outs and sent Grise to the rail.
