He Fought The Law

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Peter Craniotis
Peter Craniotis

Heading into the break Peter Craniotis made it 45,000 from the button and Tom Law defended his big blind.

The flop fell {k-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Spades} and Law checked. Craniotis made it 60,000 and Law pushed for 250,000 more.

Craniotis called with {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Law was on the flush draw with {9-Spades}{2-Spades}. Somehow, ace-high held and Craniotis moved into the top spot on the chip counts.
