Georgios Zisimopoulos Defends Big Blind, Gets Rewarded With Double-Up

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

After defending his big blind, Georgios Zisimopoulos checked a flop of {3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{j-Hearts} to Gordon Campbell who bet 130,000. Zisimopoulos moved all in for around 450,000 and Campbell called.

Zisimopoulos: {3-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Campbell: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

The turn was the {7-Clubs} and the river the {5-Diamonds}, meaning Zisimopoulos doubled up.

"Got to defend the big blind," said tablemate Neil Patel. "A big blind special!"
