Rockets for Ampelikiotis
Level 35
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Gerald Karlic opened to 800,000 from middle position, and was met with a three-bet to 1,750,000 from Theodoros Ampelikiotis in the next seat. Action back to Karlic, who called after some consideration.
On the Q♣J♥7♠ flop, Karlic check-called versus a bet of 700,000 from his opponent. The 7♥ turn was checked through.
The 7♦ river completed the board, and Karlic led out with a bet of 3,000,000, almost covering Ampelikiotis. The Greek took quite a bit of time to think before calling, and he was good when he tabled A♥A♦ for the full house, comfortably beating Karlic's K♣9♣ for king-high.
