Finns Collide in the Blinds

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Action folded to a short-stacked Kimmo Kurko in the small blind and he moved all in for 1.43 million. Pasi Sormunen asked for a count from the big even before looking at his cards, and once he got it and looked at his card, he call.

Sormunen: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Kurko: {k-Spades}{3-Spades}

Sormunen had woken up with a legitimate hand, and it was in great shape against Kurko's one over. The {2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop wasn't anything special, but the {K-Diamonds} turn was! Kurko spiked his over to take the lead. The {J-Spades} river was of no consequence and Kurko doubled through his fellow countryman.
