The River Saves Griffin
Level 12
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
Gavin Griffin was all in after a series of bets preflop, and he got calls from three players. The flop came down 
, and Donald Yucius fired out. Both Christine Antoniuk and James Manning called, and the same happened on the 
turn. The river was the 
, and Yucius quickly fired one more time. This time, Antoniuk got out of the way, but Manning called, saying "Merry Christmas" as he did it.
Yucius rolled over 
for the nut low and aces up, and Manning mucked. Once the side pot was shipped to Yucius, Griffin tabled 
for a rivered full house, which was good enough to take half of the main pot. Despite hitting that four outer, Griffin is still short with just 7,500.
