Demetriou Comes Up Short Against Casson
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
George Demetriou had ten-big-blind stack in the middle and was behind to the superior hand of Michael Casson.
George Demetriou: A♦J♦ 
Michael Casson: A♠K♣
Demetriou needed to find some help from the dealer, but it didn't look good on the 9♥10♦4♣ flop. When the 2♦ hit the turn, Demetriou vocalized what he wanted to see on the river.
"Diamonds!" shouted Demetriou.
However, it was to no avail, as the 6♣ completed the runout, which sent Demetriou to the rail.
