Dionysiou Survives Versus Khan

Hevad Khan raised to 6,000 from early position, and Kyriacos "Greek Jack" Dionysiou, sitting to his left, reraised to 15,000. The table folded back around to Khan who quickly called.

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Khan checked, and Dionysiou didn't waste much time firing 35,000. Khan immediately announced he was all in. Dionysiou thought about twenty seconds, then made the call with his remaining chips.

Khan showed {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for sixes and the flush draw, while Dionysiou turned over {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the better flush draw. The turn was the {J-Spades}, and Khan was still ahead. But the river brought the {A-Clubs}, and Dionysiou survives, having won a nice pot.

Khan slips to 195,000, while Dionysiou is up to 175,000.
