Grocott Doubles Through Li

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Alexander Grocott
Alexander Grocott

Alexander Grocott made it 2,800 from the cutoff and Shengyu Li re-raised to 9,200. With the action back on Grocott he reached for raising chips once more and slid out a three-bet of 25,000 only to see Li move all-in for 86,500 in total.

Grocott rocked back in his chair and took off his hood.

“I call I guess,” said the Aussie, “I just hope you don’t have aces…”

Shengyu Li: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Alexander Grocott: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Grocott was in luck and Li did not have aces, with the board running out {k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs} to give Grocott top set and the double to over 170,000 while Li was left dangerously short on 5,800.
