Konstantinos Takes One From Nygard

[user4144]

Alexiou Konstantinos

Fredrik Nygard raised to 39,000 preflop, only for Alexiou Konstantinos to make a three-bet to 229,000. Although it was a large reraise, Nygard opted to flat call.

The {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

flop was checked, as was the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

turn, but on the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

river, Konstantinos went to check, but dipped into his stack at the last second and led for 120,000.

Nygard made what appeared to be a reluctant call, but he was right to be hesitant as Konstantinos revealed {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

which was good enough to pick up the pot.

Another bizarre hand, but one that worked in favour of the Greek amateur.
