Just a few minutes after Gregory Spinder was published as having eclipsed the 90,000 mark, he got involved in another sizable pot, losing close to half of his stack. Gregory ran his A♥ K♥ into A♠ A♣, a dropped back below the chip average. He just recouped a good chunk of those chips from Justin Harvell, after making a strong call against the savvy tournament pro.
The hand between the two players was approached on the river (of a board reading A♣ J♣ 7♦ 9♥ 2♣), just as Spinder tossed out a bet of 3,500. Harvell had been trending upwards since the moment he sat down, and consistently "had it" whenever his hands reached showdown. So when Justin dropped a raise to 11,500 on the felt, Spinder was visibly displeased. Gregory took a solid minute to think about his decision, eventually tossing in the chips for a call. Harvell tabled K♦ Q♠, which was beat by the J♥ 10♥ of Spinder, and drew some respect from the "young gun."
"It's a sick call," Harvell said to Spinder moments later, "but I like it."
Gregory Spinder - 70,000 (58bb)
Justin Harvell - 38,000 (31bb)
