Monster Raising War Extends into Break

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

A player in early position opened to 125,000, sparking a raising war between Reed Hensel and Richard Gryko that left them as the only players in the whole room, as the rest of the players went off to break.

When action folded around to Hensel, he three-bet to 250,000. Sitting to Hensel's immediate left, Gryko cut out a re-raise and bumped it up again, making it 750,000 to go. The early-position player got out of the way, and Hensel five-bet jammed all in.

Gryko went into the tank, eventually asking for a count. As soon as the dealer confirmed a price of 2,940,000, Gryko folded.
