Level 29 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Roussos Koliakoudakis and Caleb Furth got in a raising war preflop and decided to run five cards.

Roussos Koliakoudakis: A♠K♠K♦6♠
Caleb Furth: A♣A♥4♠2♣

The flop rolled out 5♠3♦6♦, giving Furth a straight and the table was quick to provide condolences to Koliakoudakis when the Q♥ peeled, leaving him drawing dead as an inconsequential 9♥ fell.

Despite coming into the day amongst the chip leaders, Koliakoudakis was unable to gain any traction throughout the day.
