Karamalikis Eliminated by Monster Stack Perry
Following a 
flop, big blind Jonathan Karamalikis pushed his remaining 99,000 in play. Ralph Perry was in the cutoff and he thought about the situation for a bit before calling.
Jonathan Karamalikis: 
Ralph Perry: 
Perry had bottom pair and a gut shot. He was ahead as Karamalikis had only queen-high at that point, drawing for a straight himself.
The turn was the 
to bring Karamalikis a pair but also complete Perry's straight at the same time. Karamalikis could only hope for a chop should a six fall on the river. The dealer, however, turned over the 
to end Karamalikis' run in the MILLIONAIRE MAKER event.
Perry scored a knockout to increase his stack, albeit not too much in terms of proportion. He'd already been sitting on more than three million before the hand. His monster stack is now worth five times the current tournament average.
