Mavritsakis Doubles After Stack Dwindled
The blinds and antes are starting to get higher, and with four people left players have to put them in quite often. This caused Panagiotis Mavritsakis' stack to diminish to just 5,100,00. Declan Rice was in the small blind and put enough to cover that amount in the middle when Mavritsakis was in the big blind. Mavritsakis let out a sigh before he made the call.
Panagiotis Mavritsakis: 
Declan Rice: 
Mavritsakis flopped trips on the 
flop, leaving Rice dead to a runner-runner runout. The 
turn gave him a chance to his one of those runouts in the way of a backdoor flush draw.
The river was red, but of the wrong variety for Rice: 
graced the felt, upgrading Mavritsakis to a full house.
There's always a sweat in poker, as they say, but Mavritsakis survived this all-in encounter to double up.
