Gueorguievery unlucky

A preflop raising war saw the beginning of the end for Bulgarian star Atanas Gueorguiev. Kara Scott raised, was re-popped to 230,000, and quickly made it 560,000. In a heartbeat, Gueorguiev's stack was across the line and it only took Scott a minute to make the call. For the first time someone threatened her chip ascendancy -- she had {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

but Gueorguiev had {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

!

The flop: {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{5-Clubs}

{3-Diamonds}

. The turn: {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

. The crowd held its breath...

The river was the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

. So close to a double-through and Gueorguiev's all-in river brings the overcard. Could Kara Scott, on the other hand, be well on her way to an Irish Open title?
