Gross Outflopped by Sposito
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Joan Homs opened to 500 from under the gun and was called by Marco Sposito on his direct left. Phil Gross three-bet to 2,000 from middle position and saw Nhat Truong cold-call from the small blind. Homs asked to see Gross' stack of around 16,000 before also calling. Sposito, who had 6,200 more behind, put in the rest of his chips, prompting Gross to do the same. Truong got out of the way, and Homs did, too.
Marco Sposito: K♦9♣
Phil Gross: J♥J♣
Sposito had three immediate outs and paired up to take the lead on the A♣K♠10♣ flop. The 5♣ turn and 5♥ river confirmed his double up to stay in contention.
