Byrraju Takes A Huge Pot Off Karambinis

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

We walked by the table with a mound of chips in the middle and the board complete. It read {9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Spades} and we saw Byrraju move his remaining 100,00 into the middle. Chris Karambinis made the call and was stunned to see Byrraju turn over {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for the flush. Karambinis showed the {k-Spades} before counting out the chips to send over to Byrraju. According to his rail, he had the {k-Hearts} to go along with his other king.

Karambinis almost had Byrraju's hand mucked on the very next hand. Byrraju was the big blind and he was still stacking the massive pot when Karambinis overzealously sent his cards to the muck and they ended up in the vincity of Byrraju's cards. The dealer held up play and called for the floor. The floor verified what Karambinis was holding and removed those cards from the area. Apparently this is the second time this has happened on Byrraju's blind.
