Karamalikis Doubles in the Biggest Pot of the Tournament so Far
![[user76079]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Jonathan Karamalikis is the new chip leader, and the first to break the two million mark.
There was an open to 25,000 before Karamalikis three-bet to 65,000 from the small blind and Felix Kretchmann four-bet to 150,000 from the big blind. The original raiser folded but Karamalikis five-bet to 275,000. Call.
The flop fell 
and Karamalikis continued for 340,000, and called all-in when his German opponent shoved.
Karamalikis: 
Kretchmann: 
The board ran out 
and we have one very happy player, and one very distraught player.
