Mavritsakis Doubles Through Black
Level 37
: Blinds 200,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
After a very slow start to the level with few notable pots, the tail end of it finally saw some action.
Panagiotis Mavritsakis made a very big open to 2,900,000 from under the gun, effectively committing himself all-in with just two big blinds left behind.
The action folded around to Andy Black in the big blind, who three-bet the million extra required to put Mavritsakis all-in. Mavritsakis then made the call for his tournament life and their holdings were presented.
Panagiotis Mavritsakis:
Andy Black:
Both players had an ace, but Mavritsakis had the dominating kicker. No suckout or chop occurred on the board of and Mavritsakis doubled, now playing nearly the same stack as Black.
