Tzakos Gathers Almost All the Chips

Level 22 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Two big pots won for Tzakos against each one of his opponents and he now has almost six million chips. At first, in a board of {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts} he got paid in the turn and river versus Dimitrios Michailidis, for 300,000 and 400,000 respectively.

In the next hand he was in a battle of blinds against Marcel Galustov and the two players checked the flop with {k-Spades}{a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and Tzakos checked, Galustov bet 125,000, Tzakos min-raised to 250,000 and Galustov answered with a raise of his own for 650,000!

Tzakos called and the river was the {8-Hearts}, with Galustov betting 1,000,000 after Tzakos' check. It was clear that Tzakos had a really tough decision to make, but finally made the call.

Galustov showed his {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for a pure bluff and Tzakos won the huge pot with {a-Spades}{4-Spades}.
