Brutal end for Christos

Christos Kyprianos saw his bid for the money come to a crashing halt as a runner runner flush emptied his PPT pockets.

It was a duel of the Greeks as Andreas Chalkiadakis (pictured) took the down the pot, near doubling his stack after the compatriots began the day on similar stacks.

Christos had slow-played his his A♥4♥ when the flop brought 4♠-4♣-6♠ and he would live to regret it, as the turn came 5♣ and tempted his rival to stick around with A♣K♣ and the nut flush draw.

Even before the river was revealed, Kyprianos had shoved, leaving Chalkiadakis only too happy after flushing courtesy of Q♣.

Sofianos Vergitsas quickly followed to leave us with 32 players remaining and an average stack of around 84,000 chips.
