Malkotsis Manifests an Ace
Level 29
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Elguja Gigauri raised to 600,000 in the cutoff before Spyros Malkotsis moved all in from the small blind. "Two million, actually a little more," Malkotsis said.
"Call. It doesn't matter what it is, I call," Gigauri said instantly as he called for 2,500,000
Spyros Malkotsis: A♦8♦
Elguja Gigauri: J♥J♣
"Ace is coming," Malkotsis said going to the flop, which came 10♠4♥6♠. "That's almost an ace," he added.
The 5♣ turn left him a card away from elimination, but he caught the A♥ on the river. "There it is!" he shouted out as he ran away from the table in celebration.
