Papapetrou Saves Himself
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
"Camera, camera" said a player on table 1 to report an all in and a call. Yiannakis Papapetrou under the gun had the shortest stack with 160,000 chips. He faced one of the chipleaders, Temirlan Zhakenov, who was in the big blind.
Yiannakis Papapetrou: K?J?
Temirlan Zhakenov: A?K?
Papapetrou was lucky enough to find two pairs on the flop on K?6?J?4?5?. "Congratulations, you are all in the money", said the tournament director, who missunderstood the bord. "By bad, it's a double up", he apologized, with the whole room laughing.
