Nerenberg Nails Turn and River to Bust Gryko

Christian Zetzsche

Niveau 18 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Gregory Nerenberg arrived at his new table and didn't unrack his chips yet before he was involved in another all-in showdown.

On a flop of 10♦3♠2♣, Richard Gryko was all-in with the 5♥4♠3♦3♥ for the middle set and a straight draw.

"What you have, a set of treys? Sh*t," Nerenberg said. He then started cheering for spades on the J♠ turn.

"Wouldn't that be bad if I hit spades?" Nerenberg groaned and indeed hit the 5♠ on the river.

While Gryko was on the way out of the tournament area and to the payout desk, Nerenberg added "he is so mad ... what an idiot, middle set."

Also no longer in contention is Christopher Frank, as the field rapidly shrinks after the bubble had burst at the start of this level.
