Karamalikis Down

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Things have not started well for Jonathan Karamalikis, who has dropped down to 11,600 from his initial 25k starting stack. It was Brett Murtagh the man to become the beneficiary of Karamalikis' misfortune, leading out from the big blind into a ~8,000-chip pot on the river for 5,000 with the community cards reading {4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

Karamalikis (cutoff) thought it over but mucked, with Murtagh obligingly flashing his opponent {10-Spades}{5-Diamonds} before scooping in the pot to climb to 35,000 in chips.
