We didn't catch all of the action, but three players went to the ![]()
![]()
flop and one player was all in. Jonathan Karamalikis and the third player in the hand were still active and checked to the
turn card. This is where Karamalikis got the remainder of his stack in with the ![]()
and was at risk versus the ![]()
. The player who was previously all in held the ![]()
.
The
river completed the board and allowed Karamalikis to scoop the nice pot, busting one player in the process.
