Bad Luck for "Ben"

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante
Rauno "Ben" Tahvonen
Rauno "Ben" Tahvonen

Rauno "Ben" Tahvonen stepped into the limelight at the Unibet Open London, where he made a deep run and finished in sixth place. With his positive antics, the 26-year-old Estonian skateboard instructor - affectionally called the "Estonian Jesus" - quickly became a crowd favorite and had the Twitch chat rooting for him.

Here in Copenhagen, Tahvonen quickly found himself in an all-in situation against Zoltan Bozoki. Tahvonen had defended his big blind and check-raised to 2,100 on an {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. Bozoki three-bet to 6,900 and called off his stack of 20,000 when Tahvonen shoved.

Rauno Tahvonen: {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Zoltan Bozoki: {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Tahvonen had flopped the wheel and needed to evade the hearts to knock out Bozoki. The turn {9-Hearts} improved Bozoki to a flush, making the {8-Spades} river meaningless. Tahvonen was forced to fork over a sizable portion of his stack to his Hungarian adversary.

One For Van Lancker

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante
[Removed:158] Wins Unibet Open London
[Removed:158] Wins Unibet Open London

Unibet Open London winner [Removed:158] started off well in his quest for a back-to-back title. After he opened to 250 in late position, both blinds called to see a {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop. Van Lancker continued 400 and only the big blind called.

Both players checked the {K-Clubs} on the turn and the {7-Diamonds} on the river. The big blind showed {A-Spades}{4-Clubs} for a pair of fours, Van Lancker showed {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a pair of nines and the winner. The Belgian is sporting the same lucky sweater he wore when he won in London earlier this year.
