Gkatzas Takes Out Worthington-Leese on the River
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Terry Jordon limped in from under the gun before Dimitrios Gkatzas raised to 65,000 in the cutoff. Leo Worthington-Leese then moved all in for 325,000 in the small blind and Jordon folded, but Gkatzas called to put Worthington-Leese at risk.
Leo Worthington-Leese: 9♣9♦ 
Dimitrios Gkatzas: A♣J♥
Worthington-Leese remained in the lead on the K♥7♠6♥ flop, while the Q♣ turn gave Gkatzas additional outs with a straight draw. The river was the J♠ and Gkatzas hit a pair to win the pot and send Worthington-Leese to the rail.
Jordon then admitted he folded king-jack. "Sorry, mate," he said to Worthington-Leese about their previous encounter, while Worthington-Leese wished him good luck on his way to the exit.
