The hand after Ioannis Diamantopoulos had become short, Aggelos Valilis opened to 400,000 from UTG. Seated right next to him, Nikolaos Giannopoulos put in a three-bet to 1,550,000. Action folded back to Valilis, who made the call.
There are more intriguing flops in poker than 7♦2♠7♥. Nevertheless, Valilis checked, Giannopoulos fired a 2,300,000 bet, and Valilis made the call. Valilis checked again on the 4♠ turn, prior to Giannopoulos moving all in. After some consideration, Valilis decided to fold, perhaps with ICM in mind, considering the 595,000 stack of Diamantopoulos.
A few hands later, Anastasios Vardalis opened to 550,000 from the Button. Aggelos Valilis moved all in from the Small Blind for roughly 2,500,000, and when action came back to Vardalis, he snap-called.
Aggelos Valilis: A♦Q♦
Anastasios Vardalis: A♥K♦
Valilis’ tournament life came to an end as the board spelled out A♣K♣7♠9♠Q♠. He left the featured table €7,766 richer.
Anastasios Vardalis: 14,300,000
Nikolaos Giannopoulos: 13,900,000
Aggelos Valilis: 0
