Tom Grigg Jacks His Stack Up to 120,000

We stepped up to table 21 in the midst of a massive pot that had over 40,000 in it with the board reading {5-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}. Tom Grigg had checked to Brendan Edmonds who had a 28,000 bet slid out on the table in front of him. Grigg thought things through for about a minute before finally talking himself into making the call. Edmonds flipped over {K-?} {J-?} for nothing but air, and Grigg showed {J-Diamonds} {J-Spades} for the winning full house.

The hand puts Grigg at around 120,000, and leaves Edmonds with about 25,000.
