Koutoupas Has Klinger's Number

Mar 16, 2015

Sotirios Koutoupas raised to 18,000 form the button and from the small blind Josef Klinger three-bet to 44,000. Koutoupas called and once again these two players tangled in the exact same positions.
The flop was Aheart8diamond5heart and the action was checekd after which the turn brought the Theart. Klinger bet 70,000 and Koutoupas moved all in for 291,000.
Klinger called quickly and showed AspadeJheart for top pair and a flush draw, but he was far behind against Koutoupas’ flush with 9heart6heart.
The river was the 5club and Koutoupas doubled up.
“What can I say, ninety-six is my favorite hand,” Koutoupas laughed and he’s got plenty of reason to do so. The Greek player started the day with very little chips but he now sits in third place with 686,000. Klinger has 345,000 chips remaining after losing another all in.
