Chalkiotis Takes a Hit

Ollie Garland

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Xerxes I moved his short stack of 1,900,000 across the line, from middle position. Emmanouil Chalkiotis, in the big blind, made the call.

Xerxes I: A♦10♣ All in
Emmanouil Chalkiotis: 5♥5♣

Chalkiotis was ahead, but the 10♥9♠3♠ put Xerxes I in front. The 3♣ turn and 9♦ turn changed nothing, and Chalkiotis was left short, while Xerxes I survived again.
