Christmas Time for Karlic
Level 5
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Gerald Karlic was smiling all over his face while stunned players at the table looked at the massive stack of the Austrian. Pierre Neuville even asked "is it your birthday?" and Karlic explained that he had just busted an opponent in rather bizarre fashion.
On a flop, Karlic faced a bet of 200,000 into a pot of 450,000 to move all in with for a flush draw. His sole opponent rather quickly called and tabled to see another spade improve Karlic. Some players at the table were guessing that the other player must have misread his hand and thought he had the nut flush draw.
Either way, Karlic now sits atop the counts for Day 1b at the end of level five.
