The Sudden Rise of Jonathan Gray, Part 2
Moments after that huge hand with Nesrine Kourdourli, another big preflop raising battle broke out between Gray and the two opponents sitting to his direct right.
This one involved the button and small blind �� both of whom Gray had well covered �� starting the skirmish, then Gray waking up with a hand in the big blind to get involved as well.
When the dust settled, the three players showed their hands and the button had , the super-short-stacked small blind shruggingly showed , and Gray turned over�� !
"Wow," said a player from across the table when seeing Gray's hand. That sentiment was then repeated by others in various ways after the board rolled out . Gray had made a king-high flush, then unlike Kourdourli before had faded the full house draw to win the hand and knock out two opponents.
On the brink of elimination with one card to come, Gray has suddenly chipped up over a half million and into first position.
