Great Start for Geyer
Adam Geyer, who nearly final tabled the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event in 2009, and Gurgen Melkonyan were heads up in a raised pot with the board reading . Melkonyan checked, Geyer fired 4,050, and Melkonyan made the call.
The river was a repeat four - the - and Melkonyan led out for 8,525. Geyer tanked for a bit, then grabbed his entire stack and plopped it in front of him, raising all in for 22,725.
It was Melkonyan's turn to tank, and tank he did. Finally, after mulling over the decision for better part of a minute, he called. Geyer quickly turned over for a full house, and Melkonyan mucked his hand.
Geyer doubled to around 60,000 chips, while Melkonyan slipped to just 800 and busted shortly thereafter.
