Grospellier Gets Away

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

A UTG player raised to 750 and it folded around to the small blind who called. Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier then made it 2,250 to go from the big blind. The original raiser folded, but the small blind then reraised once more to 5,250 total. Grospellier considered for a moment, then made the call.

The flop came {J-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and the small blind quickly bet 5,800. Grospellier thought for about a half-minute, then made the call. The turn was the {2-Diamonds}. Again the small blind acted quickly, this time betting 8,800. Grospellier popped his knuckles, then went deep into the tank. A couple of minutes later, shaking his head and exhaling loudly, he let his hand go.

Grospellier still has about 39,000.
