Table Tries to Get Tsouloftas a Pay Jump
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Georgios Tsouloftas was down to his last 20,000 and put in 19,000 from early position. The table slowly folded around to Andrii Mykhailov in the big blind, who also took his time before reraising to 50,000. A tournament official gave Tsouloftas only five seconds to act, and he quickly tossed in his last chip.
Georgios Tsouloftas: K♥6♥ 
Andrii Mykhailov: A♣K♣
Tsouloftas was dominated and at risk, and the board ran out Q♠2♠9♥8♠4♦ to keep Mykhailov in the lead with his ace and send Tsouloftas to the rail.
"Did he get the pay jump, or no?" tablemate Ruben Lopes asked after Tsouloftas left the table.
"We tried," Graeme Newman added.
Tsouloftas officially finished in 143rd place, just making the next jump to €11,300.
