Andrew Hiscox limped from middle position and Aaron benton limmped on the button. The small blind, Tom Grigg, completed and Ernst Hermans checked in the big blind.

The flop came down {10-Spades} {5-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} in another multi-way limped pot at the final table. Everyone checked around.

The turn card was the {6-Hearts}. Everyone checked to the last player to act. Benton fired in 70,000 and then Grigg raised to 170,000. Action folded back to Benton and he made the call.

The river card was the {2-Diamonds} and Grigg led for 325,000. Benton called having rivered a straight holding the {K-Hearts} {4-Hearts}. Grigg had him one-upped though, holding {7-Clubs} {4-Clubs} for the higher straight.

Benton dropped to 900,000 and Grigg shot up to 1.8 million. That's just about where Grigg started the final table.
