Full Tilt Ambassador Coolers ANZ POY Runner Up

[user162117]

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

We recently made our way over to the faraway table on the casino floor here at the SKYCITY Auckland Casino and found that Luke Brabin was no longer in his seat. We also noticed ANZPT Full Tilt Ambassador Tom Grigg was sitting behind a stack of a little over 40,000.

While we were able to deduce that Grigg likely took all of Brabin’s chips, we got the full story off Grigg himself.

Apparently Brabin opened with and then called a three-bet from Grigg. Brabin then check-called a bet of 700 on the flop and then led for 1,600 on the turn. Grigg made it 4,300 here and Brabin jammed for around 16,000. Grigg made the call and the cards were turned over.

Brabin had for a turned straight, but a cooler would see Grigg open up for the bigger straight. The river was a brick and with that this year’s ANZ Player of the Year runner-up was eliminated.
