As the only ParadisePoker qualifier to make Day Three of the €100,000 Guaranteed Event, the hopes were resting firmly on his shoulders as the final two tables shuffled up in the Concord Card Casino, Vienna.
There was no waiting around for Stelios, as his 285,000 remaining chips were shipped into the centre holding AA on the very first hand of the day.
Just as he looked set to join the chip leaders, however, Lady Luck intervened to send him to the rail, as his rival's JJ caught a set.
Things had looked bright for the ParadisePoker qualifiers early on, with eight amongst them negotiating the GPT record 327-strong field into Day Two, including Slovakian Matej Zavacky who was third in chips.
He was joined by fellow qualifiers Vasileios Kavvetas, Stylianos Pantelakis, Dimitris Georgiadis (all Greece), Zoltan Kapitany (Hungary), Christou Glafkos (Cyprus) and Pedro Murillo (Spain).
Congratulations to all the ParadisePoker qualifiers who cashed at the GPT, and hopefully we'll see you all in the PPT Prague in March!
