Anastasakis Sticks Around
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Dimitrios Anastasakis raised to 600,000 in the hijack and Arturo Paduano defended his big blind, after some deliberation.
Paduano checked to Anastasakis on the 3?K?10? flop, after which the latter bet 375,000. Paduano then put Anastasakis all-in for 2,900,000 total.
Anastasakis pondered for a few moments before putting in the call for his tournament life.
Dimitrios Anastasakis: A?10? 
Arturo Paduano: J?10?
Anastasakis outkicked his opponent and made two pair on the A? turn. Paduano needed a jack or queen to win, but the river instead came the 8? to double up the Greek.
