Filippos Stavrakis Eliminated in 19th Place ($9,851)
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Christopher Vitch in the cutoff and Filippos Stavrakis on the button were heads up on a 10♠6♦4♠ flop. Vitch checked over to Stavrakis, who fired a bet of 200,000. Vitch called, and the Q♦ hit the turn.
Vitch promptly led out for 720,000, which Stavrakis called after some deliberation. Stavrakis only left himself 410,000 behind, which Vitch put in as soon as the 9♠ river had completed the board.
Stavrakis went into the tank, but ultimately decided he could not fold as he called off for his tournament life.
"Flush," Vitch confidently stated as he tabled 8♦7♠3♠3♦. Stavrakis only briefly flashed a hand without spades before they dsiappeared into the muck, and he took his exit in 19th place.
