Lindstrom Picks Up Aces to Bust Holdeew
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Fredrik Lindstrom raised to 150,000 in the cutoff and Jussi Mattila called on the button. Dmitri Holdeew then reraised to 700,000 in the small blind and Lindstrom moved all in.
Mattila tanked for a minute before folding, while Holdeew quickly called for an additional 400,000.
Dmitri Holdeew: Q♦J♣10♣8♦ 
Fredrik Lindstrom: A♦A♣8♠2♦
Holdeew needed to crack Lindstrom's aces to stay alive, but he got no help on the K♦7♠4♣ flop as Mattila let out a loud expletive. The rest of the board ran out 2♠3♣ and Holdeew was eliminated.
