Tavoularis Bests Halca

Anatoli Halca

Over on the feature table, Anatoli Halca defended his big blind agaianst a raise by Georgios-Angelos Tavoularis and got the remainder of his stack of 200,000 in after a flop of :::Jh:::9c:::2s. The Greek called with the superior stack and the cards were turned over.

Anatoli Halca: :::Qs:::Jc
Georgios-Angelos Tavoularis: :::As:::Jd

The kicker problem would turn out to be crucial, as the :::6d turn and :::4h river failed to improve Halca. He bowed out in 21st place for €4,150 and there is now a pay jump for all remaining 20 hopefuls.

Georgios-Angelos Tavoularis 700,000 360,000
