Lucky River for Grieco
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Thomas Boivin initiated the action with an open raise to 24,000 from the hijack and received calls from three players, including Nicola Grieco in the cutoff.
The flop unveiled J♥Q♦10♥, prompting Boivin to lead out with a bet of 35,000. Grieco responded with a raise to 95,000, which led to only Boivin making the call after some hesitation.
Both players checked through the 3♥ turn and 8♥ river.
At showdown, Boivin revealed two pair, queens and tens, with Q♠10♣. Grieco then showed 7♣7♥, clinching the pot of approximately 290,000 with a flush, courtesy of the four hearts on the board.
