Gryko Almost Doubles Up

Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Joao Simao raised to 175,000 from the hijack. Richard Gryko in the cutoff three-bet to 445,000 with only 5,000 behind and Simao went deep into the tank before making the call.

The K98 flop and the A turn were checked by both players. The 3 landed on the river and after Simao checked, Gryko moved all-in.

Even if he only had to add 5,000 to call, Simao seemed to have no choice but to fold Q976 face up. Gryko had AA106 and almost doubled up.
