Gruendemann Doubles Through Shin
Level 14
: 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
For a while there, it looked as though Mark Gruendemann was on the ropes, dropping down to 45,000 from the 86,000 he began the day with. However, Mr. Gruendemann's luck has done a sharp U-turn and he has doubled up through South Korea's Jae Wook Shin.
It was Justin Chu who was the initial aggressor, making it 5,200 from middle position, with Gruendemann moving all in for the last of his chips. Jae Wook Shin made the call from the blinds, and Chu took the hint and bowed out.
Jae Wook Shin: 
Mark Gruendemann: 
It was left to a good old fashioned race to decide Gruendemann's fate, and the poker gods were in a magnanimous mood with the 
runout giving the Irishman a flush and a double to 113,000, while Shin dropped down to 145,000.
