Mika Pekka Hallstrom - 16th Place

Mika Pekka Hallstrom made it 20,000 to go from under the gun and Claus Valloe responded with a re-raise of 100,000. Mika opted to call off his remaining 80,000 and at the showdown, the players revealed:

Mika: {8-Spades}{9-Spades}
Claus: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

Mika picked up a flush draw by the turn, as the board had filled out {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{J-Spades}, but the {9-Hearts} on the river locked up the hand for Valloe, effectively eliminating Hallstrom from the tournament in 16th place. Hallstrom picked up $8,096 in prize money for his efforts.
