Pihela Calls Off Against Tamm
Level 19
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Igor Pihela and Taago Tamm built a pot of around 1,500,000 as they went heads-up to the A♥8♠4♣ flop. Tamm then bet 450,000 from the small blind and Pihela called in middle position.
The turn was the Q♥ and Tamm moved all in. Pihela used a few time banks before calling for his last 800,000.
Pihela showed A♣K♦J♦10♣ for top pair, but Tamm had A♠K♥7♥4♠ for two pair. The 5♠ river was no help to Pihela and Tamm took the massive pot to score the knockout.
At the same time at another table, Dario Alioto spiked a set of queens on the river to bust Jerry Odeen.
