Straight to Greece

Konstantinos won our straight flush promo

Well that didn't take long! Charging our players with showing down a straight flush with both cards to win a package to ParadisePoker Greece, we thought we might make them sweat a little while but it wasn't to be.

Within half an hour of the tournament start and Konstantinos Kyriakakis was shipped a sizeable pot and his €1300 bonus prize!

In case the name didn't give it away, he won't have too far to travel when the final Season 3 Main Event comes around as Konstantinos is Greek. Looks like he'll have a little extra cash to play with in Thessaloniki.

The Athens-based player won the trip after picking 6♣9♣ in the cut-off and squeezing two limpers pre-flop. One called and the pair went to a J♥8♣7♣ flop.

The villain of this particular tale called a c-bet and another on the turn, which came K♣ to make Kyriakakis his flush. It was the river that brought the dream 5♣ and to everyone's amazement, the first of our two promotional packages was won.

Not a bad start!
