Karamalikis Betters Rafferty

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Jonathan Karamalikis opened to 115,000 from under the gun and Tom Rafferty made the call from the big blind.

Karamakilis fired out a continuation-bet of 175,000 on the {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop to prompt Rafferty to check-fold his hand.

The following hand, Rafferty bumped it up from the small blind to 115,000 and Karamalikis made the call to see a {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop fall. Both players checked, and when the {A-Diamonds} landed on the turn, checked once again as the {5-Diamonds} landed on river.

Rafferty tapped the table for the third time only to have Karamalikis push out a bet totaling 150,000.

Rafferty mucked, and after Karamalikis flashed his {A-Spades}{7-Spades}, he collected the pot to move to 2,250,000 in chips.
