Kamani Survives
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With the tournament still on the stone bubble, Ashok Kamani moved all in under the gun for 78,000. Action folded to Miltiadis Kyriakides, in the big blind, who made the call.
Once the tournament director had confirmed all other tables had completed the hand they were on, he instructed the players to reveal their cards.
Ashok Kamani: A♠A♦K♥3♦
Miltiadis Kyriakides: K♦Q♠10♠7♠
The flop of 4♥5♣3♠ kept Kamani in the lead, but things got a bit nervy for him on the 10♥ turn, as Kyriakides now had a pair.
The river 5♥ was a safe one for Kamani, though, giving him a double up to avoid being the dreaded bubble boy.
