Chorianopoulos Finds a Miracle Deuce to Double
Nível 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Catalin Diac raised to 125,000 in the hijack before Ioannis Chorianopoulos moved all in for 615,000 on the button. Iman Ghashayar reraised to 2,000,000 in the big blind and Diac pretended to look down at his chips, drawing a round of laughs from the table, before folding.
Ioannis Chorianopoulos: 2♣2♦ 
Iman Ghashayar: J♥J♠
Chorianopoulos was dominated by Ghashayar's jacks and was at serious risk of elimination as the flop came 8♣5♠4♦. The turn was the 2♥ and Chorianopoulos spiked a two-outer to make a set, surviving on the A♥ river to double up. A member of his rail then ran over and began yelling and wrapping his arms around Chorianopoulos as he tried to stack up the pot.
"I don't know him," Chorianopoulos joked with his tablemates.
