Richard Gryko Eliminated in 15th Place ($63,402)
David Benyamine raised to 160,000 from under the gun and was called by Joshua Adkins from two seats over, Richard Gryko then called on the button. Three ways to the Q♥8♥6♣ flop, Benyamine checked and Adkins bet 315,000.
Gryko then raised it up to 1,350,000 for Benyamine to instantly fold. Nearly one minute after that, Adkins called and then bet the pot for 3,395,000 on the 4♦ turn. Gryko didn't snap-call but came along reluctantly for around 2.7 million in chips.
Richard Gryko: A♥Q♦Q♣5♠
Joshua Adkins: Q♠J♠10♦8♠
"Nine," Adkins demanded and sure enough, the 9♣ fell on the river as Adkins jumped out of his chair with an "oh my fuckin god". Both stacks were verified but Gryko was already waiting for the payout runner as he simply said "it happens."
Gryko was eliminated in 15th place for $63,402 while Adkins further extended his lead on the final two tables.
"Queen eight is your hand," Jonathan Bowers in the eight seat said with a smirk on the face.
