Sunshine for Gray

No sooner had Dario Alioto doubled up Karsten Johansen than he did it again, this time getting the chips in preflop with {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts} against T6 player Jason Gray's {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. Some sucking-in-air-between-the-teeth noises around the table on the turn, but ultimately no surprises on the {A-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {8-Spades} board and a cheerful Gray now has 12,500 in chips, while Alioto has less than 5,000.
