Xanthopoulos' Big Slick Holds Up
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Tarmo Tammel raised to 2,200 from the hijack and was three-bet to 10,000 by Pavlos Xanthopoulos in the cutoff. Sidi Tourad committed his last 10,400 into the middle, but Tammel folded and the cards were revealed.
Sidi Tourad : A?Q?
Pavlos Xanthopoulos : A?K?
Tourad needed to find a queen if he was stay alive in the tournament. However, the K?A?6? flop meant that only running cards would keep Tourad in his seat. That didn't happen though as the rest of the board came 3?2? and Xanthopoulos's top two pair would eliminate Tourad.
