Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Luciano Melo moved all in in early position, and when action folded round to Kimon Fountoukidis, he committed all of his chips, calling for less than the all-in.
Kimon Fountoukidis: 7♦7♠
Luciano Melo: A♦8♥
An important flip for both players and the deck favoured Melo on this occasion.
The flop came down 3♥5♣8♣, giving Melo the lead.
The turn 8♠ meant Fountoukidis was left with just two outs and one opportunity to find one of them.
The river K♣ sealed his fate, though. Melo scooped a crucial pot, and Fountoukidis headed to the exit.
