Konstaninos Craving
When we arrived to see the flop reading , the player in the hijack was already all in for around 22,000, the player on the button all in for 17,000, and recent EPT Vienna finalist Konstantinos Nanos in the big blind had a decision to make.
He ummed and ahhed for some time, and eventually, with a thump, slammed the call on to the felt. He immediately smacked the table when he saw what he was up against, and shouted something that sounded like, "Russian Russian Russian flush draw jacks."
Nanos:
Hijack Gentleman:
Mr. Button:

The gent with the jacks tripled up, while the busted Mr. Hijack offered a gentlemanly, "Nice hand, man, good luck," before taking his leave. Nanos picked up the side pot, but still made a considerable loss on the hand. He's down to 23,000.
