Michael Savakinas Eliminated in 16th Place ($8,948)
Level 23
Big O
Dimitrios Michailidis raised to 56,000 from early position and Michael Savakinas three-bet to 195,000 from late position, which represented about two-thirds of Savakinas' stack.
Michailidis called and checked to Savakinas, who pushed in his remaining chips on the 2♦7♦10♠ flop, with Michailidis quickly calling.
Michael Savakinas: A♦A♣9♦5♥2♠
Dimitrios Michailidis: A♠K♥Q♥3♥2♥
As it happened, it was a big flop for Savakinas, whose aces were still in the lead to go along with the nut flush draw, leaving him looking good for at least half the pot.
However, Michailidis would back into the wheel on a 5♠4♣ runout and send Savakinas to the payout desk.
