Georgios Karakousis opened for 5,000 under the gun and received a call from Christopher Andler. Puglia Giampaolo then three-bet to 16,000, and action folded to Billy Chattaway in the big blind. He moved all in for 21,000 total, all three of his opponents called, and the flop came down . Karakousis was first to act and simply moved all in, which drove the other two players from the hand.
Karakousis:
Chattaway:
Karakousis flopped top pair, which was just enough to pull out in front of Chattaway's fish hooks. Neither the turn nor river helped Chattaway, and he made his way to the exit while Karakousis was pushed the pot.
