Angelou-Konstas Drawing Thin

Frank Visser

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Dario Sammartino had raised from the hijack and Ioannis Angelou-Konstas had called from the cutoff, creating a pot of 170,000. Sammartino then checked on the Q?8?K? flop before Angelou-Konstas made a bet of 135,000. Sammartino made the call and the 2? turn rolled off.

Sammartino checked again and Angelou-Konstas put in a bet of 200,000. Sammartino then put Angelou-Konstas all-in for 550,000 chips total, and the latter instantly made the call.

Ioannis Angelou-Konstas: J?10?
Dario Sammartino: K?2?

Angelou-Konstas had a flush draw but it was nullified by Sammartino's higher flush draw, leaving Angelou-Konstas only with an open-ended straight draw.

However, the 6? river completed both players' flushes, meaning that Angelou-Konstas was sent home.
