Konstantinos Takes One From Nygard

Alexiou Konstantinos

Fredrik Nygard raised to 39,000 preflop, only for Alexiou Konstantinos to make a three-bet to 229,000. Although it was a large reraise, Nygard opted to flat call.

The {6-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{K-Hearts} flop was checked, as was the {J-Clubs} turn, but on the {5-Spades} river, Konstantinos went to check, but dipped into his stack at the last second and led for 120,000.

Nygard made what appeared to be a reluctant call, but he was right to be hesitant as Konstantinos revealed {J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} which was good enough to pick up the pot.

Another bizarre hand, but one that worked in favour of the Greek amateur.
