Dimitrios Barmpathanasis opened for 11,000 from under the gun. Alexander Milanov called from middle position as did the players on the button, the small blind, and the big blind.

Three players checked before Milanov bet 25,000 after the {j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} came on the flop. It folded around to Barmpathanasis who raised it to 80,000. Milanov jammed for about 140,000 and Barmpathanasis snap-called.

Alexander Milanov: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Dimitrios Barmpathanasis: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

"Nice hand," Barmpathanasis said after he saw his opponent's pocket rockets.

Neither the {q-Spades} on the turn nor the {3-Diamonds} on the river proved to be of help for Barmpathanasis and the dealer sent a monster pot over to Milanov.

A short while later on the same table, Dritan Korimani was unable to survive long enough to bag chips for Day 2 and there are 17 players remaining in the Day 1c field.
