Guerin Eliminated by Brutal River

Livello 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Adam Grovenstein opened to 65,000 from under the gun and was called by Sasha Guerin in late position.

The 5♣K♦7♥ flop saw Grovenstein continue for 50,000 with Guerin making the call to send action to the turn.

Grovenstein decided to slow down following the 9♥ turn, checking to Guerin who pushed 95,000 into the middle. After some thought, Grovenstein called.

The 10♠ hit the felt on the river, prompting Grovensein to take over the betting lead by making it 55,000 to call. Guerin, unperturbed, raised to 250,000 to leave himself just 25,000 behind. Grovenstein responded by putting his opponent all in and Guerin quickly called holding 7♦7♣ for the flopped set. It was no good, however, as Grovenstein tabled 10♦10♣ for the rivered higher set to send Guerin to the rail in brutal fashion.
