Koutelidakis Gets There

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Greg Koutelidakis just doubled through Tyler Van Elzen with a lucky river card that saved his day.

With a six-figure pot already in the middle, Koutelidakis shoved the {q-Clubs}{k-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} turn for close to 300,000.

Van Elzen made the call and was ahead with {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs} against {q-Spades}{10-Spades}.

However, the {9-Diamonds} river was a good one for Koutelidakis completing his open-ended straight draw.
