Karpati Stuns Vlachos on the River
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 9♣10♦6♥, Andreas Vlachos bet 31,000 from middle position and Imre Karpati called in early position.
The turn was the 5♥ and Vlachos moved all in for around 50,000. Karpati took a minute before calling with 8♣8♦, but he found himself behind Vlachos' Q♣Q♦.
The river was the 7♦ and Karpati slammed the table after making a straight to win the pot. Vlachos laughed off the bad beat and made his way to the exit.
"Why couldn't I have a board like that when he had aces," Robert Schiffbauer said, reminiscing over his pot against Emanuel Flesner earlier.
