Pihela limped the button. Bareisis raised to 140,000 from the big blind. Pihela three-bet to 340,000 before Bareisis went into the tank. Eventually, Bareisis opted to jam for more than the 840,000 Pihela had behind. Pihela snap-called, and Bareisis began to shake his head about the coin flip after turning over nines to Pihela’s king-jack. Bareisis turned a set and rivered a full house to win the tournament for the €47,930 top prize, while Pihela earned a healthy €30,750 runner-up prize for his amazing performance.
Congrats to Marius Bareisis on his biggest win in his poker career to date. See you next time at the Kings of Vilnius, Nov. 15-24, at Olympic Casino Lietuva.
