Grey Knocks Out Mintz

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Wouldn't it be fun to say, just once, "I raise… to one million"? Or more? It's happening all around us at the moment.

Tom Grey opened with a standard raise to 90,000 from under the gun, and it folded around to Ben Mintz in the small blind who reraised all in for 1.21 million (!). The big blind stepped aside, and after tanking a bit Grey called the huge shove.

Mintz showed {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and Grey {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The flop came {10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, giving Grey a set. The {2-Hearts} on the turn improved Grey to a full house but also gave Mintz outs to survive. But the river was the {4-Clubs} and Mintz is out.

Grey is now up around 4 million.
