Massimo Di Cicco
Alexiou Konstantinos raised to what I believe was 130,000 only for the action to grind to halt on Massimo Di Cicco. At first he looked as though he was going to fold, but after a momentary pause, the Italian rose from his seat and pushed all in for 280,000 more. The call was inevitable.

Konstantinos cheered, as if he'd already won. Di Cicco, meanwhile, gave his opponent the thumbs down.

Andrew Alan Chen raises preflop and Alexiou Konstantinos calls. Chen bets 120,000 on a flop and the Konstantinos calls. With the pot swelling to over 500,000, both check the turn before Konstantinos bets 215,000 on the river .
Chen looks pained and really thinks long and hard before calling, and Konstantinos shows for a missed straight-flush draw. Chen flips for only ace high, but it's good enough for a big pot.
Konstantinos must be rueing not getting aggressive on the flop.
