Aydemir Regrets His Fold But Saves Himself
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Sebastian Hoyos raised to 80,000 from the cutoff and was called by Recep Aydemir on the button. In the small blind, Yiannis Liperis three-bet to 308,000. Hoyos shoved all in and Aydemir tanked for a moment before folding.
Liperis snap-called for around 1,200,000 and showed 
. Hoyos also had 
as Aydemir angrily tossed away two eights and left his seat.
"Good fold. Good fold," tablemate Hakan Tatli said as the 
flop paired both Hoyos and Liperis. The board ran out 
and they chopped the pot.
"Even an eight I don't want," Aydemir said as he sat back down, his tournament life saved by his fold.
