Horst Leaves Salakari with Crumbs

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Duncan Horst
Duncan Horst

Pasi Laihinen opened to 50,000 from early position, before being met with a three-bet to 150,000 from Duncan Horst in middle position.

Viljami Salakari cold-called in the big blind, and Laihinen got out of the way.

On the 643 flop, Salakari jammed with the slightly covering stack, and Horst moved his stack of 425,000 into the middle.

While the players were waiting to table their cards, Horst burst into a rendition of My Way, altered to be a narrative of the hand.

Duncan Horst: AA All in
Viljami Salakari: AJ

Horst had the goods with pocket aces, but he had a sweat against Salakari's flush draw, and the second verse of My Way reflected the position.

Much to Horst's delight and Salakari's dismay, the 5 turn and J river were bricks, and Horst finished the song with a crescendo, confirming he had indeed done it his way.

Salakari could only grimance, and was left with crumbs on the bubble.
