Kiriakidis Gets a Crucial Win
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jorge Kiriakidis in the small blind and his opponent on the button both had relatively short stacks to start the hand. They got it all in preflop. Kiriakidis slightly covered the button’s stack of 36,500.
Button: A♠J♥
Jorge Kiriakidis: A♦10♦
Kiriakidis was dominated but the flop 2♥6♦9♦ gave him life with a flush draw. The turn 4♦ brought in the flush and Kiriakidis, who would have been crippled had he lost the hand, got an extension to his tournament.
