Mikkel and Diming

Mikkel Madsen has just been eliminated from the tournament by new big stack Jonathan Karamalikis.

On a board showing {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}, an unknown opponent fired a 1,600 bet that was called by Karamalikis before Madsen moved all in. The original bettor called and so did Karamalikis. What happened next was a little confusing.

Karamalikis thought that both of his opponents were all in, not realizing that the unidentified opponent still had about 2,500 in chips in front of him, so he tabled his cards -- {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}. A floorperson was then called to the table to sort out the issue and he ruled that Karamalikis' hand would remain live.

After that issue seemed sorted, the unknown player turned his cards over as well, showing a pocket pair of aces, but the floorstaff quickly told him to turn them back over.

The {3-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Karamalikis fired a 1,200 bet, prompting the third party to send his aces into the muck.

At the showdown, Madsen revealed {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for flush and gutshot straight draws, but the river blanked -- {J-Hearts} -- and Karamalikis' set of sixes held up to win the pot and send Madsen to the rail.
