Buckley Strikes Out Papadopoulos
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
On a heads-up turn of A♣J♣4♥8♦, Adrian Buckley bet 55,000 after a check from his opponent, Kyriakos Papadopoulos.
Papadopoulos thought for a second, then made the call to see the 9♥ appear on the river and he checked once more.
Buckley then announced he was all in, covering Papadopoulos who went into the tank. After using one of his time banks, Papadopoulos made the call and tabled A♦Q♥ for top pair, top kicker. He was then shown J♠J♦ by Buckley for a flopped set of jacks to take the pot and Papadopoulos was eliminated just a few spots away from the money.
