Kalfayan Risks It All...Literally!

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
George Kalfayan

Four players headed to a flop of A64 with around 5,000 chips in the middle. Mark Duran led out with a bet of 3,200 in the big blind and George Kalfayan pushed all in for 12,500, including his phone and car keys.

"Where's your watch?" another player asked. The action folded back to Duran who quickly flicked in a call.

George Kalfayan: A3All in
Mark Duran: 64

The turn brought the Q which vaulted Kalfayan into the lead with the nut flush. The A completed the board and Kalfayan scored himself a double up.
