Demo Kiriopoulos was stringing along his opponent after flopping a set on a board, looking to obtain maximum value from Lawrence Greenberg.
With almost 50,000 in the pot already before the river action, Lawrence Greenberg announced all-in for his remaining 37,300, and Demo was quick to make the call. Lawrence tabled for a rivered full-house, and Demo flashed his while nodding his head in disbelief, watching the 125,000 chip pot get pushed away from him.
Demo was left with a little over 40,000 after the hand.

As we passed by table 21 it was hard not to notice that the (usually) formidable pile of chips in front of Trevor Argue was conspicuously absent. Instead of having over 300,000, he had closer to 30,000. Although we were not at the table at the time, we learned that Trevor had come down on the wrong side of an all in.
According to one of the players at his table, the hand that crippled Trevor was dealt 10-9-4, with Trevor and Mathyeu Provost battling it out, going all in on the flop. Trevor was holding a Q-4, but his opponent had a set of 10s.
That said, as this post was being written it appears that Trevor has begun his comeback. We’ll see if he can stay in the hunt!
