Christoforou Comes From Behind to Double

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Andreas Christoforou

Andreas Christoforou moved all in for 230,000 under the gun and Fabio Peluso called in middle position. Vedat Yilmaz tanked in the cutoff before folding, while the blinds also got out of the way.

Andreas Christoforou: QJ
Fabio Peluso: AJ

Yilmaz looked away from the table after the two players exposed their hands. Peluso had Christoforou dominated heading to the K89 flop, but Christoforou made a straight on the 10 turn. The river was the J and he doubled up.

Aleksandar Tot, Daniel Henriques, Guoliang Wei, and Hassain Hashim weren't so lucky as they busted shortly after the bubble burst.
