Demetriou Comes Up Short Against Casson
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
George Demetriou had ten-big-blind stack in the middle and was behind to the superior hand of Michael Casson.
George Demetriou: A?J? 
Michael Casson: A?K?
Demetriou needed to find some help from the dealer, but it didn't look good on the 9?10?4? flop. When the 2? hit the turn, Demetriou vocalized what he wanted to see on the river.
"Diamonds!" shouted Demetriou.
However, it was to no avail, as the 6? completed the runout, which sent Demetriou to the rail.
