Grigg Gets Value From Benson

Folded to Tom Grigg in the hijack, he would open the pot to 25,000. Gary Benson, on Grigg's direct left, three-bet to 75,000. Grigg opted to call and the dealer flipped over a {8-Spades} {a-Clubs} {k-Clubs} flop. Grigg checked here and then called a bet of 100,000 from Benson. Both players decided it would be best to check the {3-Hearts} turn and it was on to the {5-Hearts} river.

Grigg led for 140,000 here and Benson instantly called. Grigg's {a-Diamonds} {q-Diamonds} was too strong for Benson's [ahjh, with Grigg scooping up the handy pot and leaving Benson with one of the shortest stacks.
