Level 3 : 300/600, 600 ante

Simeon Marvakis and Polykarpos Stryvakis just lost all their chips in the same time but in different tables.

Marvakis had a monster straight flush draw on the turn versus his opponent trips and the chips went all in the middle with the river not helping him.

Stryvakis played a very big pot with four players paying 3,300 chips each before the flop. The flop came {4-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Marcel Galustov bet 11,000 from the cut-off when checked to him. Pistofidis called from the button and Stryvakis announced all in from the small blind for 28,000.

Both players called and the {k-Diamonds} fell on the turn, with Galustov announcing all in for around 14,000 and Pistofidis folded after some deliberation.

Stryvakis was ahead with {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and a queen-high flush but Galustov had outs with {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for a higher flush draw.

The river did him this favor with the {j-Diamonds} giving him a higher flush and Stryvakis re-entered the event.
