Vieira Finishes Off Tkatschew
Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Alexander Tkatschew put in his last 21,000, as well as his Raphael Ninja Turtles figurine, in the middle from the button as Joao Vieira reshoved in the small blind. Steve O'Dwyer quickly folded his big blind.
Alexander Tkatschew: J♠9♦
Joao Vieira: A♥K♠
Tkatschew took the lead on the J♦10♦3♣ flop with a pair of jacks, and stayed in front on the 6♥ turn. The river, though, was the A♠ and Vieira made top pair to send Tkatschew to the rail, but not before remembering to grab his figurine from the middle of the pot.
