John Perry vs. Egidijus Digrys

Level 6: 400 / 800 ante: 800
John Perry

Three players put in a little more than 20K into the pot to see a flop of Q J 7 , and they all check to the turn, which is the A .


Egidijus Digrys checks from UTG+1, the hijack checks, and John Perry bets 7,000 from the cutoff. Digrys calls, and the hijack folds.


The river card pairs the board with the Q , and both players check. Digrys shows 5 5 for a five-high diamond flush, but Perry turns over K K to win the pot with a king-high diamond flush.

Another One Bites The Dust To Egidijus Digrys

Level 5: 300 / 600 ante: 600

Small blind Rayan Chamas just took a seat and quickly enters by calling the cutoff player's raise. Big blind Egidijus Digrys pushes his massive stack to induce a fold from the raise while Chamas tanks. After a minute, Chamas makes the call for his27,100 behind and it's a flip.


Chamas has 6 6 , Digrys shows A J , an ace finds the flop and holds throughout the board A 8 4 T 7 . Chamas gets up and leaves and Digrys climbs further.

Egidijus Digrys Eliminated by Manuel Carvalho

Level 6: 400 / 800 ante: 800

Egidijus Digrys is all-in for a mere 1,700 from under the gun and he is looked up by Georgios Skarparis as well as Georgios Skarparis, which create a larger side pot. Carvalho leads the K 9 3 flop for 3,200 and he calls a raise to 10,500 by Skarparis.


After the Q turn, Carvalho jams for 21,700 and Skarparis folds.


Digrys shows A 3 and has some outs to beat the K J of Carvalho, but the T river is not among them.
