Set Over Set Over Set Juices Gruendemann's Stack

Alan Lau could not survive the carnage on Mark Gruendemann's table, and the ridiculous levels of action continued with Taiwan's Eric Tsai kind enough to relay us the following hand details after the fact.

According to Tsai it was Gruendemann who was the initial aggressor, min-raising from under-the-gun plus one and picking up four callers with a player one seat over calling, as well as a player in the lojack, Tsai from the small blind, with the big blind coming along also.

So it was five-way to the flop, which was of the rainbow variety, falling and the action checked round to the lojack player, who took a stab for 4,500. Only Tsai and Gruendemann made the call to take the action three-way to the turn, which brought all four suits into play.

All checked to the player in the lojack once more, and this is where things got interesting when the man in question fired for 9,000. Tsai went for a check-raise to 19,000, Gruendemann went all-in for a little over 21,000 and Tsai called with chips behind meaning there was a main pot and a live side pot.

The rest of the chips went in on the river and hands were revealed. The lojack had by far the worst of it with bottom set and busted. Tsai won the side pot with for a set of threes and Gruendemann was laughing all the way to the bank with flopped top set.
