Charalambous Runs Into Aces

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante

For the second hand in a row, Peter Charalambous opened with a pot-sized raise to 70,000. The first time, it got through. This time, though, Nick Binger re-potted, and Charalambous called all in for 145,000 total.

Showdown
Charalambous: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Clubs}
Binger: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}

The {8-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {K-Hearts} flop paired Charalambous, but he was still in need of some help with two cards to come. The turn {4-Clubs} gave him a low draw to try and chase down, a sight he was very much pleased with. "I'll take a seven," he said, content to settle for half the pot. "I'm not greedy. Put a seven out there."

River: {7-Spades}

That'll do for Charalambous, and he'll get half the pot.
