Chip leader Sameh Meshreky limped in from middle position, and William Vo completed from the small blind. In the big blind, Nicholas Grippo shoved all in for about 1.2 million. Back on Meshreky now, he made the call, and with hardly any chip left, Vo couldn’t pass on the pot odds.
Meshreky: [8d][8s]
Grippo: [As][8h]
Vo: [6d][4s]
The drama was short lived, as the [8c] instantly popped into the window. Grippo was able to turn an inside straight draw, but it didn’t come through, and Meshreky strengthened his chip lead while knocking out two players.
