Sick Two Outer for Iliadis to Hit the Rail

Level 4 : 150/300, 300 ante

Savvas Iliadis bet 3,000 into a pot of a bit more with the {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} on the board. Savvas Dirchalidis raised to 15,000 before Iliadis jammed for about 40,000.

Dirchailidis made the call and turned over {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for two pair and needed a two out to beat the full house held by Iliadis with {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

The poker room erupted in shock after the {q-Diamonds} came on the river to give Dirchailidis a better full house than his opponent and send Iliadis to the rail.

Dirchalidis Chips Up

Level 4 : 150/300, 300 ante

Efstathios Mathanailidis three-bet a pot preflop to 8,300 and got a call from Savvas Dirchalidis.

Dirchalidis checked the {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop. Mathanailidis bet 11,500 and Dirchalidis immediately jammed his stack.

Mathanailidis asked for a chip count and the dealer said it was 41,700. He tanked for a couple of minutes before he made the fold and Dirchalidis, who just entered the tournament, piled up his new chips into his stack.

Huge Hero Call by Epskamp

Level 4 : 150/300, 300 ante
Yori Epskamp
Yori Epskamp

Great start for PokerNews Global Live Reporting Manager Yori Epskamp.

A player opened to 500. Another player called and Dimitrios Milidis also called from the button. Epskamp three-bet to 3,500 from the small blind and Milidis was the only player to find a call.

Epskamp led out for 4,200 after the {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop. Milidis counted out some chips before he raised to 12,000. Epskamp gave a huge staredown to Milidis before he called.

Both players checked after the {9-Hearts} came on the turn. Milidis then jammed for about 30,000 after the {10-Spades} paired the board on the river.

Epskamp gave Milidis another staredown before he called. Milidis tossed his hand in the muck before Epskamp showed the huge hero call with just ace-high holding {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}.

After the hand, Milidis immediately reentered the tournament.
