Karakousis Doubles Huge Through Roed
After Martin Kozlov opened for 32,000 and Georgios Karakousis called, Kent Roed three-bet to 86,000 from the big blind. Kozlov gave it up, Karakousis opted to call, and it was heads-up action to the 
flop. Roed checked, Karakousis bet 225,000, and Roed responded with a check-raised to 525,000. Karakousis then snap-shoved for 827,000 total and Roed called just as quickly.
Roed: 
Karakousis: 
Much to Roed's surprise, Karakousis had flopped the flush. That meant Roed needed a diamond that wasn't the 
to eliminate his opponent. With nearly two million on the line, the dealer burned and put out the 
on the turn. Karakousis sat stone-faced and watched as one more card was burned and the 
completed the board on the river. Karakousis' hand held to give him a massive double while Roed was left with just 140,000 after the hand.
