Stavropoulos: Long Name, Short Stack

Manny Stavropoulos from Event 6
Manny Stavropoulos from Event 6
Graeme Putt started things with a preflop raise to 4,000. David Lee then made it 10,000 to play, and action came around to Manny Stavropoulos. Manny moved all in for his last 18,000 chips, enough to get Putt out. Lee came along though, having his opponent well covered.

Showdown:
Stavropoulos: {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}
Lee: {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs}

The flop was disastrous for the all-in player, coming out {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}. The turn and river were the {4-Spades} and the {6-Hearts} respectively, and Lee draws out on Stavropoulos, sending him to the exit.

David Lee is on 65,000 chips now.
