Earlier this tournament, Leonidas Andriopoulos cracked aces with ace-king to survive for his tournament life. Perhaps it was a classic case of 'meant to be', as Andriopoulos now sits at 315,000 and is one of the big stacks in the room.
This time, Andriopoulos held the bullets and called off a check-shove of around 60,000 on a board where his opponent held a flush draw. The board bricked for the player at risk and Andriopoulos added to his stack.
