Grafton Fires Away at Mokri

Kayhan Mokri raised to 6,000 from under the gun and was called by Sam Grafton on the button and big blind Jean-Noel Thorel.

The flop came 8♥K♣9♥ and action checked to Grafton who bet 7,000. Thorel folded, but Mokri called to see the Q♣ turn.

He checked again and Grafton then bet 12,000. Mokri called once more and the 10♥ fell on the river.

Grafton fired out 38,000 this time as Mokri went into the tank. He tossed a time bank chip in the middle, nearly making Grafton reveal his hand.

"Sorry," he said to Grafton.

"It makes no difference," Grafton replied.

Mokri eventually folded and Grafton took the pot.

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau just took his seat in the tournament.
