Gruissem Flips for His Tournament Life

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Philipp Gruissem
Philipp Gruissem

Philipp Gruissem is a big-time player that has the potential to do some damage, but he's been handcuffed much of the day with a short stack.

The German recently got his last 127,000 all in preflop and was racing against Mayu Roca.

Gruissem: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Roca: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop was no help to Gruissem, and neither was the {4-Spades} turn. Gruissem needed either an ace or king on the river to stay alive, but it wasn't in the cards as the {5-Diamonds} blanked.

"Alright guys," the usually jovial Gruissem said before taking his leave.
