Level 25 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Preflop action opened from the button, with "nvrlucky" raising to 22,000. Jeremy "GrubbsTest" Grothues then reraised all in from the big blind for 59,655.

Jeremy "GrubbsTest" Grothues: 4♣4♠
"nvrlucky": Q♥J♣

Grothues was well ahead when the flop came A♥A♠7♠. That story did not change when the 3♦ came on the turn, but a river J♠ meant that "nvrlucky" did in fact get lucky, which ended Grothues' run.
