Gkatzas Boats Up on the River to Sink Sorainen’s Straight
Niveau 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The action folded to Luka Sorainen in the small blind, and he limped in, prompting Dimitrios Gkatzas to check his option in the big blind.
The flop came 9♦10♣9♣, and Sorainen led out for 25,000. Gkatzas responded with a raise to 80,000, and Sorainen made the call.
The 6♥ landed on the turn, and after Sorainen checked, Gkatzas moved all-in. With a stack of around 400,000, Sorainen snap-called.
Luka Sorainen: 8♥7♥
Dimitrios Gkatzas: 9♠4♠
Gkatzas had flopped trips, but Sorainen's turned straight put him in a prime position for a double-up. However, the river still held potential drama, and it delivered as the 4♣ gave Gkatzas a full house. An unfortunate river for Sorainen, whose tournament run ended in 30th.
