Set for Ylamaki to Double

Level 23 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Mikko Ylamaki
Mikko Ylamaki

Tommi Lankinen opened to 120,000 under the gun with K♥Q♦, and received a call from Pasi Laihinen on the button, before Mikko Ylamaki three-bet jammed to 845,000 from the big blind.

Lankinen quickly folded, but Laihinen made the call with the covering stack.

Mikko Ylamaki: J♦J♣ All in
Pasi Laihinen: A♦K♣

It was off to the races, and although the ace was in the window, it was followed by a jack on the A♠J♥7♠ flop.

Laihinen could not find an unlikely escape on the 9♣ turn, and was drawing dead, the 6♠ river completing the board.

Pasi Laihinen

Mikko Ylamaki opened to 120,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a three-bet to 280,000 from Pasi Laihinen in the big blind.

Ylamaki took a brief moment for thought before four-bet jamming to 1,900,000 with the covering stack, and Laihinen quickly got his 990,000 total stack into the middle.

Pasi Laihinen: K♦K♣ All in
Mikko Ylamaki: 7♥7♣

Laihinen had Ylamaki crushed, although the 9♦8♣5♦ flop was sweaty, giving Ylamaki outs to the straight.

The K♥ turn improved Laihinen to top set, and the 3♠ river was a brick to confirm his double-up.

Tommi Lankinen opened to 100,000 under the gun with K♠J♦, and received a call from Pasi Sormunen in the small blind with K♣Q♣.

On the J♥5♥4♥ flop, Surmonen check-raised to 300,000 in the face of continuation bet of 75,000 from Lankinen.

Lankinen called to see the 6♣ turn, and Surmonen double-barreled with a bet of 300,000, which failed to shake off Lankinen, holding top pair.

The A♥ river completed the board, and Surmonen went for the triple-barrel bluff with a bet of 500,000, leading to a fold from Lankinen.

Duncan Horst

Duncan Horst opened to 120,000 from the cutoff, and was met with a three-bet to 325,000 from Tommi Lankinen in the small blind.

Action folded back to Horst, who peeked at his cards for a final time before four-bet jamming for a total of 1,100,000. Horst looked concerned when he received a snap-call from Lankinen.

Duncan Horst: A♣K♣ All in
Tommi Lankinen: K♥K♦

In a cooler, Horst's Big Slick had run into the kings of Lankinen, and there was no escape on the 6♥6♣5♥7♠4♥ runout, the cowboys of Lankinen bringing to an end the run of the singing cowboy Horst.

There are now five Finns left battling for the title.

Mathias Siljander opened to 100,000 from the hijack, and Pasi Sormunen defended the big blind.

On the A♠K♠2♦ flop, Sormunen check-called in the face of a bet of 60,000 from Siljander.

The 8♦ hit on the turn, and Surmonen checked once more. Siljander fired out a bet of 190,000, but was met with a check-raise to 400,000 from Surmonen.

Siljander had 450,000 behind, and he made the call.

The A♣ river completed the board, and Surmonen checked. Siljander moved all in for 240,000, and Surmonen made the call after around three minutes in the tank.

Siljander tabled 5♦4♦ for air, having missed his flopped gutshot and turned flush draw, and Surmonen had K♣8♥ for two pair, aces and kings.
