Skarparis' Straight Eliminates Golan
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The action folded to Georgios Skarparis in the small blind, who made it 55,000 to go. Navot Golan in the big blind then three-bet to around 400,000, leaving himself just 20,000 behind. Skarparis shoved, and after a short tank to try and make a pay jump, Golan called.
Navot Golan: K♣Q♠
Georgios Skarparis: 6♥6♣
Golan was probably in better shape than he thought and just needed to win a flip to stay alive. However, the board of 3♣5♥A♠4♣7♣ ended up giving Skarparis a straight, which meant Golan was eliminated.
