Graviel Heating Up in $150K GTD

Lisa Graviel is heating up in the $150K GTD Season Finale Opener.

Towards the end of 1,500/3,000/3,000, Keller Houston opened to 6,500 from the cutoff. Christian Ramirez called on the button and Lisa Graviel defended her big blind.

The flop came two-tone with T♣8♦6♣. Graviel checked. Houston checked. Ramirez led out for 15,000 and Graviel announced all-in.

Houston didn't like having Ramirez left to act behind him and seemed shocked that Ramirez folded after he did.

In the next hand, action folded around to Graviel after Marigold Carlisle open-jammed from early position for 31,000.

Marigold: J♣J♦ (all-in)
Graviel: A♣J♠ 
Board: A♦K♣4♣6♥9♥

Marigold's jacks acted as ace magnets. The ace-high flop paired Graviel and Marigold went unimproved on the turn and river.

40 players remain. Blinds are going up to 2,000/4,000/4,000. Players will take a 15-minute break after the completion of the 4k blind level.
