Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Miltiadis Kyriakides raised from under the gun to 20,000, and only Youness Barakat called from the small blind.
Barakat opted to lead out on the 9♥6♣4♠ flop, betting 37,000. Kyriakides made the call, and they headed to a turn.
The 9♦ turn didn't slow Barakat down, this time putting out a bet of 105,000. Kyriakides took a look back at his cards before moving all in for 360,000. Barakat called, and the players flipped their cards over.
Miltiadis Kyriakides: A♣Q♥9♣7♣ 
Youness Barakat: 6♥6♦5♣3♥
A full house for Barakat had Kyriakides at risk, but the river A♦ turned the tides, as Kyriakides improved to a better full house.
A crucial pot for Kyriakides, as it not only kept him alive, but provided him with a healthy stack as the bubble looms.

Ray Attiyah just arrived at the table to see Colin Mchugh raise it up from middle position and Phil Hellmuth folded his Q♥5♥4♠3♥ face up in the big blind. Mchugh responded by throwing his A♣A♦10♥8♣ face up into the middle of the table as well.
"This is a talking and showing table?" Attiyah inquired.
"Friendly table," Alex Livingston replied.
"Until you beat me in a big pot," Hellmuth chimed in.
Upon the next pitch of the cards, Justin Armstrong raised the pot to 28,000 in middle position and was called by Brandon Crawford in the cutoff. The flop came J♥10♥8♦ and Armstrong piled all in for his last 35,000 which Crawford quickly called.
Justin Armstrong: A♠A♣K♦J♣
Brandon Crawford: J♦10♠5♠4♦
Crawford flopped two pair to take the lead against Armstrong's aces. The 2♠ and 7♣ runout changed nothing and Armstrong wished the table well before exiting.
