Tsouloftas Whiffs the River Against Karlic
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Georgios Tsouloftas raised to 60,000 in the cutoff before Gerald Karlic three-bet to 260,000 in the small blind. Tsouloftas called and the flop came 8♦6♠5♣.
Karlic then bet 150,000 and Tsouloftas called. The turn was the Q♥ and Karlic bet another 300,000. Tsouloftas used a time bank before moving all in, and Karlic snap-called.
Karlic showed K♣Q♣ for top pair, while Tsouloftas could only show J♣9♣ for a straight draw. The Q♠ river improved Karlic to trips and earned him the pot.
The stacks were counted down, and Karlic's remaining 1,285,000 had Tsouloftas slightly covered, sending Tsouloftas to the rail.
