Grigoletti Gets Rewarded for His Tough Call

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

What started as a trivial hand turned into a big win for Thiago Grigoletti, who defended his big blind against Ralph Perry's raise to 175,000 from the cutoff.

Grigoletti check-called another 150,000 on the {A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop before they both checked the {J-Spades} on the turn.

The river was the {Q-Clubs}. Grigoletti bet 175,000, and Perry raised to 575,000. Grigoletti looked pained when he saw it, but he wasn't ready to give up his {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, and eventually called. If he was wrong, his stack would suffer a major hit, but that wasn't the case.

Perry tapped the table to wave a white flag, as his bluff didn't get through.
