Theologis Makes a Hero Call
Level 12
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Alexandros Theologis opened to 25,000 from the button, and Orpen Kisacikoglu responded with a three-bet to 120,000 from the big blind. Theologis made the call.
On the Q♥3♥8♦ flop, Kisacikoglu continued for 26,000, and Theologis called.
The 3♦ turn brought another bet from Kisacikoglu, this time for 60,000, and Theologis stayed in.
Things escalated on the 10♥ river as Kisacikoglu fired a hefty 215,000 bet. Theologis went deep into the tank, using all six of his remaining time bank cards before turning to his neighbor and saying, “I trust you,” and making the call, referring to an earlier similar situation. Kisacikoglu showed A♦K♥ for ace high, while Theologis revealed K♦Q♣ for top pair to take down the pot.
