A player moved all in for 8,600 and was called by another player on his immediate left. The action then folded around to Edward Gray, who moved all in over the top for 50,700.
His opponent thought it over for about 30 seconds before folding what he later claimed was KQ. Gray turned over JJ, which was well ahead of the all-in player’s A9.
The board fell 753510 and Gray scored the knockout. He now has about 69,000 in chips.
Edward Gray limped from under the gun +1 and Kelly Slay followed from the hijack seat. The two went heads-up to a flop of J97 and checked to see the K on the turn. Gray checked again and Slay bet 500. Gray called and the river was the J. Gray checked for a third time and Slay fired out a bet of 1,100. Gray released his hand and Slay scooped up the pot.
