Toni Kaukua Eliminated in 18th Place ($25,000)
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Toni Kaukua raised to 151,000 from under the gun with just 25,000 behind. Mehdi Chaoui shoved from the cutoff for around 600,000 and when it got back to Kaukua, he stuck in the call to put himself at risk.
Toni Kaukua: A♥Q♠
Mehdi Chaoui: J♥J♠
It was a coin flip that Kaukua needed to win to stay alive, and he picked up an addition out on the 6♣6♠6♥ flop.
Chaoui's jacks stayed ahead on the 5♠ turn, and Kaukua needed to spike the river to survive.
The 4♦ was blank, and Kaukua was out in 18th place.
