Grigg Slides

Danny 'Brotha D' Leaoasavaii made it 100,000 straight from the button and Tom Grigg made the call to see a {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop fall.

Leaoasavaii fired out 100,000 and Grigg made the call as the {8-Clubs} rolled off on the turn and Grigg checked to Leaoasavaii who opted to fire out 300,000.

Grigg made the call, and when the river landed the {10-Spades}, Leaoasavaii moved all in following a check from Grigg.

Grigg went deep into the tank for over four minutes as a I call could potentially see him eliminated.

"It has been a good match!" uttered Leaoasavaii to put more doubt into the Australian's mind, but after a further minute, Grigg kicked his cards into the muck as Leaoasavaii was shipped the pot while flashing the {A-Clubs}.
