Giantanko Gets Rivered

Anthony Giangrasso has been taking a lot during the first day and even on the feature table when facing tricky spots. Another of such situations just occurred with the board reading :::4d:::9h:::As:::5s:::2s. There were about 70,000 in the pot and Viacheslav Igin made it 45,000 to go out of the big blind. Giangrasso tanked again for several minutes, stood up and studied the board.

The Frenchman eventually made the call and was shown the :::Kh:::3c for a backdoor straight.

Vyacheslav Igin 300,000 83,000
Anthony Giangrasso 80,000 -31,000
