Adam Lamers

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

In one four-bet pot, Demosthenes Kiriopoulos was in early position and heads-up with the cutoff. The flop came and Kiriopoulos led out for 11,300 into a pot of around 12,000. His opponent called and the paired the board on the turn. Kiriopoulos jammed all in for 26,600 and his opponent mucked his cards.

A couple of hands later, there was a raise to 1,500 from under the gun and Kiriopoulos just called from the small blind. The big blind three-bet to 5,700 and the initial raiser called. Kiriopoulos stuck in a four-bet to 21,700 and got both of his opponents to fold.
