Grieco Cracks Aces To Double Up
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
All the chips hit the middle preflop between Artur Martirosian in the big blind and Nicola Grieco under the gun, who was at risk for his remaining 267,000.
Nicola Grieco: 10♠10♥
Artur Martirosian: A♣A♠
Grieco was in rough shape and in need of help to stay alive. The flop came 8♠7♦6♠ to give Grieco more hope with a straight draw to go along with his tens. The turn brought one of the outs he needed when the 10♦ rolled off and Grieco yelled out in excitement. The 5♦ completed the runout and Grieco scored a full double up off Martirosian.
