Riess Battles With Grieco

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Nicola Grieco opened to 265,000 with {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Ryan Riess flat-called with {k-Spades}{9-Spades} in the small blind. On a {9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Riess checked and Grieco fired a bet of 275,000 with 2,100,000 behind. Riess check-raised to 750,000 and Grieco folded.

Riess then opened the button to 225,000 with {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Grieco jammed the big blind for 2,000,000 with {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

"No change cards," Grieco said when Riess double-checked his cards and the 2013 WSOP Main Event champion replied with "I wish I could change one" before sending the cards into the muck.
