Kiriopoulos Hits Jackpot; Eliminates Joseph

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Jeremy Joseph min-raised and the price for 20,000 seemed reasonable for Ilkin Amirov, Daniel Weinman and Demosthenes Kiriopoulos, who all made up for a four-way pot.

The flop fell {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and action checked to the original raiser. Joseph pushed all in, causing a fold from Amirov and a request for a count from Weinman. It was 199,000, which was too much for Weinman.

But when Weinman released his cards, Kiriopoulos instantly threw in one chip, signalling a call. Kiriopoulos turned over {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for a flopped nuts. Joseph was drawing very thin with just {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

Joseph's chances increased when the {8-Clubs} hit the turn, which was one of the best possible cards to keep his hopes alive. He could still dream about a runner-runner boat or flush, but the {6-Spades} disappointed him.

Kiriopoulos added another victim to his list and regained the chip lead, surpassing James Mackey in the leader board.
