Gkatzas Wins Small With Big Slick
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Dimitrios Gkatzas raised to 200,000 in middle position. Vitezslav Cech three-bet to 275,000 on the button, and Gkatzas decided to call.
The Greek player then check-called Cech's bet of 175,000 on the 8♠8♣10♠ flop, after which the A♥ arrived on the turn. Both players checked, and they did so too when the 3♦ river completed the board.
Gkatzas showed A♦K♣ for a carefully played ace-king, and Cech quickly mucked his K♠Q♣ in defeat.
