Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Richard Gryko doubled his short stack through Phillipp Mellon when his QQ104 flopped top and bottom pair on the 105462 board. Mallon got some of the chips back when his top two pair were good in showdown before there was three-way limped action ahead of him when Mellon was in the big blind.

Veselin Karakitukov, Sean Rafael and Gryko all put in the 5,000 chips. Mellon then raised to 25,000 and was called by Karakitukov as well as Rafael. The 532 flop was checked to Rafael who bet 28,000, Mellon folded and Karakitukov called.

Heads-up to the 7 turn, Karakitukov checked again. Rafael asked for the pot size and then bet 70,000 into 139,000 to win the pot uncontested.
