Kambouris Sent Packing

Just moments after getting crippled, action folded to Antonis Kambouris and he moved in for 4,050 chips. The big blind made the call saying "I gotta gamble with you one time. I'm in the casino, I gotta gamble. You know when you have this feeling."

Kambouris held {K-Clubs} {8-Clubs} and looked good so far against his opponent's {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds}.

Both players flopped a pair with the {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} board, but Kambouris' was just a tad lower than his opponent's. When the turn and river came the {A-Spades}, {9-Clubs}, that was it for Kambouris.
