Anastasakis Sticks Around
Level 31
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Dimitrios Anastasakis raised to 600,000 in the hijack and Arturo Paduano defended his big blind, after some deliberation.
Paduano checked to Anastasakis on the 3♦K♣10♦ flop, after which the latter bet 375,000. Paduano then put Anastasakis all-in for 2,900,000 total.
Anastasakis pondered for a few moments before putting in the call for his tournament life.
Dimitrios Anastasakis: A♣10♣ 
Arturo Paduano: J♠10♥
Anastasakis outkicked his opponent and made two pair on the A♦ turn. Paduano needed a jack or queen to win, but the river instead came the 8♥ to double up the Greek.
