Gregg Over Two Million

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Tony Gregg (Day 3)
Tony Gregg (Day 3)

Bryn Kenney raised to 45,000 from under the gun, Tony Gregg called in the cutoff, and Curt Kohlberg called out of the small blind. The dealer spread a flop of {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, Kohlberg checked, and Kenney continued for 80,000. Only Gregg called.

The turn was a repeat eight - the {8-Clubs} - and both players checked.

The river was the {6-Diamonds}, Kaverman slid out 265,000, and Gregg went into the tank. The 2013 WSOP One Drop High Roller winner rechecked his cards before cutting out enough chips to make the call. He set them aside, then placed them on top of his stack, then grabbed them again.

Gregg ultimately committed the stack, and Kaverman showed {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} for kings and eights with an ace kicker. The "End Boss" revealed {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a ten-high flush, however, and was awarded the pot.
