Mayer Eliminates Mavritsakis
Level 19
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Action was already underway with 1,000,000 in the pot when Panagiotis Mavritsakis bet 490,000, prompting Thomas Mayer to respond with an all-in. Mavritsakis deliberated for a considerable time before ultimately deciding to make the call.
The board revealed K?A?3?8? as Mavritsakis revealed his cards, showing A?10?, a pair of aces with a ten kicker. Mayer revealed A?8?, securing two pair with aces and eights. The 7? on the river brought excitement for Mayer, who momentarily jumped from his chair and expressed his joy loudly. After a few seconds, he returned to the table and apologized to Mavritsakis and the other players, saying, "Sorry, sorry about that."
