Xanthopoulos Leaves De Cleen Short
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nico De Cleen jammed over the top of an open raise only to find himself up against Pavlos Xanthopoulos, who was covered by a few big blinds.
Pavlos Xanthopoulos: Q♠Q♣
Nico De Cleen: A♣3♣
The suited ace flopped a pair and wheel draw on 4♣3♥2♥ but the 4♥ turn as well as Q♥ river kept Xanthopoulos ahead, as he doubled for 23,900 with queens full of fours.
De Cleen was left with around eight blinds and departed shortly after when David Docherty made a flush.
