The Sultan of Swings
Level 20
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Athanasios Polychronopoulos has had a roller coaster of a day and we are only 90 minutes into it. Early on he lost a big pot with 
versus pocket eights. Just now we saw him back in action, opening from the cutoff and the big blind, Omar Mehmood, defended.
Mehmood then led the 
flop for 23,000. Polychronopoulos raised to 75,000 and called all in after Mehmood shoved. Polychronopoulos was at risk for his last 223,000 and showed 
for nines while Mehmood revealed 
for sevens. Neither the 
turn nor the 
river changed anything, and Mehmood tapped the table with a "nice hand."
