Skarparis Gets a Full Double Into the Break
Nivel 30
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
While the other players had gone on their break, Aliaksandr Hirs raised from the cutoff and Georgios Skarparis defended his big blind.
On the 2♠6♥5♥ flop, Skarparis checked and Hirs fired out a continuation-bet of 150,000. Skarparis then check-raised to 475,000, and Hirs called.
When the 10♠ dropped on the turn, Skarparis shoved for 3,075,000 — almost double the pot. After using a few time banks, hirs called.
Georgios Skarparis: 6♦6♣ 
Aliaksandr Hirs: 10♥8♥
Skarparis slammed his hand down as if he had it locked up, but he still had to fade the river as Hirs had a flush draw. The 3♠ dropped on the river, which was a brick, and Skarparis climbed to almost 8,000,000 while Hirs dropped down the pecking order.
