Paytas Doubles; Kanakopoulos Doubles Back
The action was caught when all the chips hit the middle preflop between Orestis Kanakopoulos and Nathan Paytas, who was the player at risk for his last 2,600,000.
Nathan Paytas: Q♥Q♣
Orestis Kanakopoulos: A♥5♥
Paytas was in great shape preflop, but when the flop fanned out A♠J♥4♠, it looked close to over for Paytas. The turn, however, had other plans when the Q♠ rolled off to flip the tables and lock up the double for Paytas. The inconsequential 3♥ completed the board and Paytas collected the pot, leaving Kanakopoulos short.
On the very next hand, Raj Vohra opened to 175,000 from under the gun and Kanakopoulos moved all in for 460,000. The rest of the table got out of the way and Vohra called.
Orestis Kanakopoulos: A♠K♥
Raj Vohra: A♥7♠
Kanakopoulos picked up a monster hand, and when the board ran out A♣K♠6♣3♦J♦, the ace-king held to secure a much needed double up for Kanakopoulos.
