Kyriakides Flops a Six
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Miltiadis Kyriakides opened in early position and Fahad El Mechraa called in the small blind before Thi Nguyen put in a three-bet to 4,500 from the big blind. Kyriakides called but El Mechraa mucked his hand.
The 7?6?3? flop was checked through to the J? turn. Nguyen checked once more and called a bet of 3,500 from Kyriakides.
When the 5? completed the board, both players tapped the table. Nguyen showed ace-high with A?Q?, while Kyriakides took down the pot with 8?6?, flopping a pair of sixes.
