Chris Grigorian

Timothy Miles opened to 50,000 in early position and Chris Grigorian three-bet to 150,000 from the cutoff. Dong Sheng Peng stuck in a four-bet to 325,000 which got Miles to fold. Grigorian five-bet shoved all in for around 700,000 and Peng quickly called.

Dong Sheng Peng: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Chris Grigorian: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Peng had a comfortable lead with the larger of the two pairs and the flop of {9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} changed nothing. The {4-Hearts} and {8-Hearts} runout was also no help to Grigorian who headed to the payout desk.
