Aaron Benton needling Tom Grigg into a decision

Tom Grigg raised to 125,000 from the first position. Wayne Carlson called on the button and then Aaron Benton called from the big blind.

The flop came down {A-Spades}

and everyone checked. The turn card was the {8-Diamonds}

and Benton checked. Grigg fired 250,000 and Carlson folded. Benton then moved all in, having Grigg well covered. Grigg had roughly 700,000 chips left.

After some time in the tank and some baiting from Benton, Grigg made the call. He held {Q-Diamonds}

for a pair of jacks.

"YEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!" yelled Benton as he rolled over his {A-Hearts}

for a better pair of aces. "Hold up baby! Hold up!"

The river card was dealt the {6-Clubs}

and couldn't provide a miracle for Grigg as he was sent to the rail in 5th place. Benton raised his hands over his head and gave out another massive yell, scaring everyone kangaroo within a 500-mile radius. He's up to 5.2 million now.
