Bambos is out

Sat, Dec 6th 2008, 22:55 by Reporter

Bambos Charalambos moves in for a total of 80,000+ but it called by the Mad Turk Yucel Eminoglu who has A K and dominates Bambos’ A 3

The board provides no help:

A 6 9
T 6

And Bambos gets his coat. Ever the gentleman, he stops to give me the £20 owed after a bet on the Khan fight before leaving the card room.

He leaves with £3,000 for 19th place. (after the deal)

We are down to 18 players and two tables.
