Level 30 : 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Dimitrios Melissourgos opened the button to 325,000 and Thomas Koral defended his big blind.

On the J♠5♦3♦ flop, Koral check-called a bet of 350,000 from Melissourgos.

Koral then led on repeat 5♣ turn for 900,000, and Melissourgos put in the call fairly quick.

On the 6♠ river, Koral announced a pot-sized bet of 3,400,000, sending Melissourgos into the tank. Making a decision for the majority of his remaining chips, Melissourgos opted to let it go, conceding the pot to Koral without showdown as he takes over the chip lead.
