Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Liran Twito on the button was involved in a hand with Richard Gryko in the big blind.
With the board reading Q♦J♥A♠9♠ Gryko bet out 600,000. Twito responded by moving all in for a little over 2,000,000 and Gryko quickly called to put his opponent at risk.
Liran Twito: K♣Q♥Q♠J♠
Richard Gryko: A♣A♦J♦2♦
Gryko was ahead with his superior set but the river came 10♣ to improve Twito to a straight to hand him a big double while leaving Gryko with a bitter taste in his mouth.
