Grigg's Read Right... Wrong Result

Tom Grigg, one of the chip leaders called the all in shove of James Botta on a {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} board. Grigg was ahead with {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, and Botta's {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} would need an ace or a queen to survive.

The turn card was a blank, but the {q-?} on the river gave Botta the winning straight, doubling him up to about 60,000. Tom Grigg on the other hand slipped below the 200k mark and has about 180,000.
