Costa Giannakopoulos Eliminated in 8th Place ($5,800)
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Cliton Taliwanth opened to 100,000 with the K♥8♥ and Costa Giannakopoulos called in the small blind with the 10♣9♣. Tome Dinh raised to 375,000 with the K♠K♣ and that forced out Taliwanth, while Giannakopoulos stuck around to the J♦8♣6♦ flop.
Giannakopoulos pushed all-in for the last 340,000 with his open-ended straight draw and he was quickly called by the overpair.
The 4♥ turn was a blank and the A♠ on the river ended the run of Giannokopoulos in 8th place for $5,800.
