In a battle of the blinds between Andreas Paliogiannis and Panagiotis Arkeles, 100,000 was in the middle on a flop of 10♥8♥2♦.
Paliogiannis checked, and Arkeles fired out a bet of 40,000. Paliogiannis responded with a check-raise to 100,000, and Arkeles didn’t take much time for thought before shipping his 228,000 total stack into the middle.
He looked surprised, and concerned, when Paliogiannis snap-called.
Panagiotis Arkeles: A♦10♦
Andreas Paliogiannis: 2♣2♥
Arkeles was in deep trouble with top pair versus bottom set, but the 9♦ turn brought hope with the flush draw.
He proceeded to drill the 6♦ river, to Paliogiannis’ astonishment.
“Unbelievable” said Arkeles, stunned he was still alive in the tournament.
Panagiotis Arkeles – 556,000
Andreas Paliogiannis – 497,000
