A player under-the-gun bet 8,000 on the turn with the board reading {k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and was called by an opponent in middle position. In the big blind, Jeff Gross counted out his stack before moving all in for 21,400 total. The bettor folded, and the caller said he had a draw but felt priced in due to the pot being massive. He called with {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a double gutshot, while Gross tabled {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for top-top.

Gross got on the side of the dealer where the card was going to emerge so he could sweat it out, as he likes to do. He said it was the biggest pot of the series for him equity-wise, and fortune smiled upon him as the dealer delivered the {8-Diamonds}.

At nearby tables, Justin Bonomo and Phil Hellmuth have taken seats.
