Grieco Gets Warned, Then Doubles

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

It was an eventful couple of minutes over on Table 7. Nicola Grieco was warned for not complying with the 'English only at the table' rule and the Italian looked annoyed while the rest of the hand continued to play out...that was until he secured a double after surviving a sweat against Orpen Kisacikoglu, whom he clashed with on the flop.

Back to the beginning and Ryan Riess kicked things off with an open to 17,000, which Kisacikoglu called behind before Grieco joined them from the big blind. It came {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and when checked to, Riess bet 20,000 into the pot. Kisacikoglu called and when it came back to Grieco, he moved all in. Riess snap-folded but after a count, Kisacikoglu called the 269,000 more.

Nicola Grieco: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Orpen Kisacikoglu: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

It was top pair and a ten-high flush draw for Grieco versus the nut flush draw and an over card for Kisacikoglu. The {6-Diamonds} turn gave Kisacikoglu more outs and Grieco got out of his seat and cheered when he dodged all of them on the {j-Spades} river. The clash leaves Kisacikoglu down to the felt.
