Stai Soaring Late, Eliminates Ekdahl

Frank Visser

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Johan Ekdahl had moved in his last 20,000 preflop, and he was looked up by big stack Oystein Stai.

Johan Ekdahl: A♠5♠ All in
Oystein Stai: A♦J♦

Stai flopped a pair on J♠3♣K♣. The 6♠ turn made things sweaty, but the Q♣ river remained clean for Stai to score a knockout.
