Sam Grafton Eliminated in 4th Place (�209,600)
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Sam Grafton limped the small blind, and Jean-Noel Thorel checked his option.
When the K?9?8? flop hit the felt, Grafton led for 20,000 and Thorel made the call.
The 7? fell on the turn, and Grafton check-raised the bet of 30,000 to 90,000. Thorel called.
The 9? paired the board on the river and Grafton bet 265,000, leaving just 16,000 behind. Thorel moved all-in, and Grafton called. Grafton tabled 10?6? for a straight on the turn, but it was no good as Thorel showed his trappy K?K?, making kings full of nines.
