Tsouloftas Hits Miracle Turn to Stay In Contention
Level 39
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Georgios Tsouloftas pushed in his stack of 9,275,000 on the button and was looked up by Erik van Hulst in the small blind.
Georgios Tsouloftas: A♥2♦ 
Erik van Hulst: A♣Q♥
Tsouloftas was dominated, and the 10♠K♣A♠ flop did nothing to change that fact. The 2♠ did, however, as it gave him two pair to take a sizable lead.
The 9♣ river was a safe one, doubling him up and eclipsing Van Hulst in the counts.
