Gravagna Gets Unlucky Twice
Timothy Capretta moved all in for 310,000 from the cutoff and John Gravagna snap called in the big blind.
Timothy Capretta: A?9?
John Gravagna: 9?9?
Capretta was behind but spiked an ace on the A?K?8? flop to take the lead in the pot. The board ran out 5?A? and Capretta finished with trips to double up.
A few hands later, Gravagna pushed forward 275,000 from the button, leaving himself just a single chip behind. Josh Palmer then reshoved, and Gravagna checked to see if there was a pay jump approaching before calling.
John Gravagna: A?Q?
Josh Palmer: A?Q?
Both players had the same hand and appeared headed for a chop until the 4?J?5? flop gave Palmer the nut flush. Gravagna was already drawing dead as the board ran out 6?3?.
"How does that happen? I never take a picture, but I have to take a picture of this one," Gravagna said as he snapped a photo of the board before heading for the exit.
