Mavritsakis Lost as Docherty Overbets River

Level 40 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Panagiotis Mavritsakis limped in from the button and David Docherty checked his big blind.

The flop came down {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Mavritsakis bet the minimum of 1,000,000 after a check from Docherty. Docherty quickly called before both players knuckled the table on the {a-Diamonds} turn.

The river was the {10-Hearts} and it saw Docherty take the betting lead with a bet of 7,500,000, one and a half times the pot.

This sent Mavritsakis into a minutes-long tank where he searched for answers for the present and perhaps many more of life's questions.

Eventually, he decided his hand was not worth a call and he surrendered the pot to Docherty.

Panagiotis Mavritsakis Eliminated In 3rd place (€161,500)

Level 40 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Panagiotis Mavritsakis open shoved from the button for 20,300,000, which was around 20 big blinds. David Docherty woke up with a hand in the small blind and made the call.

Panagiotis Mavritsakis: {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
David Docherty: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{a-Hearts}. Mavritsakis stood up and sighed as the cards were turned. He hit a pair of nines and Docherty had a pair of tens to win the pot.

Mavritsakis was eliminated in third place for €161,500.

First Postflop Pot Goes the Way of Rice

Level 40 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Some pots have been traded back and forth before the first completed board was dealt during this heads up.

David Docherty raised to 2,000,000 from the button and Rice defended his big blind.

The flop came down {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and both players checked. On the {9-Clubs} turn, Rice led for 1,500,000, which Docherty quickly called.

The players repeated their flop action on the {2-Diamonds} river and the middle pair of Rice's {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} was enough to win him a small one.

Docherty Chops Pot With Seven Deuce

Level 40 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

As heads-up heated up, David Docherty raised from the button to 2,000,000 with {7-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Declan Rice called in the big blind with {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

The flop came {7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Rice checked and Docherty bet 1,000,000. Rice responded by moving all in for 20,175,000.

Docherty put his hands behind his head and had a tough decision to make. He eventually made the call and players flipped their cards.

The pot could have been a huge one, but the turn came the {8-Hearts} and the river the {3-Diamonds}. That gave both players a full house and they chopped the pot. Heads up play continued.
