It was folded to Yujia Hu who raised to 5,500 from the Hi-jack. From the Small Blind, Luis Pereira went all in for 43,000. Action was now on big-stacked Timotheos Timotheou in the Big Blind, who re-shoved for roughly 480,000. Hu went out of the way and the players in the blinds turned over their cards:
Luis Pereira: 3♣2♣
Timotheos Timotheou: A♥K♠
The two lowest cards in the deck versus the two highest. The flop K♣5♣4♦ brought all kinds of hope for Pereira, and as the final product wasK♣5♣4♦6♥A♣, he doubled up.
“I was getting ready to leave”, Pereira claimed as the dealer pushed the chips his way.
Timotheos Timotheou: 420,000
Luis Pereira: 98,000
