Gryko Smacks the River to Crack Linde's Aces
Level 29
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Dylan Linde raised to 2,100,000 on the button and Richard Gryko three-bet to 6,600,000 in the big blind. Linde then moved all in and Gryko called for 10,600,000.
Richard Gryko: Q♠J♥J♦9♦
Dylan Linde: A♥A♦10♣6♣
Gryko found himself needing help as Linde showed down a pair of aces. The 10♠8♥2♦ flop gave him straight draws, but the 8♠ turn left him a card from elimination.
Gryko spiked the Q♦ on the river to make his straight as he doubled up, nearly catching Linde atop the leaderboard.
