Gruissem Check-raising With Air

Sep 14, 2012

Idris Ambraisse raises to 16,000 under the gun, Jerome Douieb calls in the next seat, as does Philipp Gruissem in the big blind. The flop is [6h] [5s] [3c] and the action checks to Ambraisse who makes a 24,000 c-bet. Douieb surrenders his hand to the dealer before Gruissem makes a check-raise to 75,000. Back to Ambraisse and he just calls. The check-raise stirs things up a little because that is the end of the action. Both the turn [As] and river [4c] are checked through and Gruissem just mucks his hand. The dealer eventually flips it over to show [Jc] [9h] for the airball and Ambraisse shows [Ac] [Jh] for top pair.

Ambraisse ~ 490,000
Gruissem ~ 760,000
