Mavritsakis Secures Double Up

Herbie Teope

Level 41 : Blinds 1,300,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante

Panagiotis Mavritsakis made a large preflop bet of 17,500,000 and left a 100,000 chip behind.

Action folded to Lawrence Barber in the big blind, and Barber asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Mavritsakis�� bet and it sent Barber deep in the tank.

Barber used approximately a little more than two minutes on his decision, peeking down at his hole cards multiple times. He also looked over to the other table to observe the action before eventually making the call.

The player in the big blind folded, leading to the flop.

The dealer fanned Q?A?5? on the board, and both players checked. The 9? showed up on the turn, resulting in both players to check.

The 4? on the river also brought about checks.

Barber tabled 10?10?, but his hand was no good against Mavritsakis�� A?K? for a pair of aces.
