Paul Griffin Doubles Thru Scott Efron

Kurt Lichtman limps under the gun for 20,000, Paul Griffin limps UTG+1, and Ely Levy raises from the button to 100,000. Scott Efron calls from the big blind, and Lichtman and Griffin both call as well.

The flop comes 1095, and Efron bets 300,000. Lichtman folds, and Griffin moves all in for 611,000. Levy folds, and Efron calls with QJ for an open-ended straight draw. Griffin turns over 109 for top two pair, and he needs his hand to hold to stay alive.

The turn is the 7, the river is the 3, and Griffin wins the pot with his top two pair to double up in chips.

Paul Griffin  –  1,659,000  (82 bb)
Scott Efron  –  730,000  (36 bb)
