Kyriakides Fades the Snap-Call

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Thomas Waters moved all in under the gun for 47,900. Juha Helppi called in the next seat, and Miltiadis Kyriakides shoved all in from the very next seat for about 270,000. Action folded back to Helppi, who thought for a moment.

"Yes!" Kyriakides said, pleased he faded the snap-call. "Yes!"

Helppi smiled and folded.

Waters: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Kyriakides: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The dealer rapidly fired a board of {q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, and Kyriakides collected the pot. Helppi assured him his own hand wouldn't have beaten the kings either.
