Shorr No More

The table folded around to Bertrand Grospellier in the small blind who raised to 13,000. The minimum raise would have been to 12,000, and Grospellier explained he hadn't intended to make such a small raise. Shannon Shorr called from the big blind.

The flop came {J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. Grospellier bet 16,000, about two-thirds of the pot. Shorr raised 56,000 more, then Grospellier kicked it up to 151,000 total. Shorr counted out his chips and saw he'd have about 80,000 more should he call. He then pushed all in, and Grospellier made the call.

Grospellier had {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} for the overpair. Shorr had {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks. The {4-Hearts} on the turn and the {K-Hearts} on the river ended the day for Shorr.

Grospellier is our clear chip leader at the moment with 799,500.
