Georgios Skarparis Knocks Out a Player

Level 3: 200 / 400 ante: 400
Georgios Skarparis

With the board showing Q T 5 J on the turn, the big blind checks, and Lin Aung San bets 8,000 from under the gun. Georgios Skarparis calls from the hijack, and the big blind check-raises to 22,000, leaving himself only about 1,000 behind.


San tanks for a while before he folds, and Skarparis quickly raises to put the big blind all in. The big blind calls all in for about 23,000 with K J for a pair of jacks with an open-ended straight draw, but Skarparis turns over A 8 for an ace-high straight, and the big blind is drawing dead.


San's cards haven't hit the muck yet, and even though he folded he flips them over to show he had A A .


The meaningless river card is the 6 , and Skarparis wins the pot with his flush to eliminate the player in the big blind.
