Griffin Gets Them All Back

It didn't take Gaving Griffin long to re-acquire the chips that he recently surrendered to Simon Wallace. Griffin was sitting in the small blind when Shane Moran opened the pot for 2,100 and was called by Kevin Wagler. Griffin reraised to 8,500, folding Moran. Wagler made the call.

Both players checked the {Q-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {Q-Spades} flop. Griffin checked again when the turn fell {A-Clubs}, then called a bet of 9,000 from Wagler. On the river {9-Spades}, Griffin led out for 19,000. Wagler moved all in, bringing a double-fist-pump-snap-call from Griffin, all in for less -- about 58,000 total. Wagler flopped a small full house with {6-Hearts} {6-Spades}, but was second-best to Griffin's turned full house with {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}. Griffin dragged a monster pot of roughly 153,000 chips, crippling Wagler in the process.
