Matt Grisham was in the process of standing up and taking a picture of what was the biggest pot to date in the tournament. His stack was in the process of being counted out by the dealer while Greg Geller was counting out his own stack to see who covered whom.

While the math was happening, Geller recounted the hand, saying he had opened on the button and Grisham three-bet him from the big blind. Geller called and the flop came {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Grisham continued with a bet of 40,000 and Geller called. The turn came {10-Spades} and Grisham shoved all in for around 80,000. Geller called.

Matt Grisham: {a-}{a-}
Greg Geller: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Geller was in need of a spade to come otherwise he was set to hit the rail. The river brought him the {2-Spades} to secure the double and bring his stack to around 290,000, meanwhile, Grisham was left with just 3,200.

On the following hand, Geller raised and Grisham called off his stack while everybody else folded.

Greg Geller: {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Matt Grisham: {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and Grisham secured the double to bring him to a stack of around five big blinds.
