Sootla Out and In Again
Ranno Sootla made waves for Estonian poker fans this summer when he had a huge run for a WSOP gold bracelet in the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em - Bounty event. He didn't find gold in that event and instead took second place for $168,464.
Sootla is well-known to enter big events in his home country and it doesn't get much bigger than the Coolbet Open Main Event.
Today hasn't gone that well for Sootla. He was down on chips and got his stack of around 25 big blinds with

One of Sootla's tablemates said, "It's time for diamonds."
However, not enough diamonds came nor did any other help for Sootla as the board ran out 
and Sootla temporarily left the tournament area.
The tournament director asked Sootla if he was going to reenter.
"Of course," Sootla said as he headed to the registration desk to get a new seat.
