Tamasauskas Has the Genie's Luck
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Vladas Tamasauskas moved all in for 150,000 in the cutoff and Ehsan Amiri called in the small blind.
Vladas Tamasauskas: A♥2♦
Ehsan Amiri: J♥J♦
Even though he was the one involved in a pot against him, Amiri again gave Tamasauskas his genie's bottle and rooted for an ace to come. The flop came Q♥4♦3♦ and Amiri called for the 6♦, but the turn was the K♥ and kept him in the lead and poised for a knockout. The river, though, was the 5♣ and Tamasauskas made a straight to double up.
"I told you, the genie works 100 percent," Amiri said, laughing off the bad beat.
