Danias Flops Boat & Avoids Shipwreck
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Nicholas Danias opened to 50,000 in middle position and Ohad Geiger three-bet jammed a stack of 285,000 from the button. Danias called with a bigger stack.
Ohad Geiger: A♠K♣ 
Nicholas Danias: 6♥6♣
The flop of 8♠6♦8♦ absolutely smacked Danias as he made sixes full and he said "give it to me" as the dealer put down the 8♥ turn, somehow leaving Geiger with a chance to win the pot. But the 2♥ river was safe and Danias scored the knockout.
"Might be celebrating too early!" said Ryan Law.
"Hard not to celebrate when I flop a boat," replied Danias.
