Keep Your Friends Close, and Your Enemies Closer

Ilari Tahkokallio and Kevin MacPhee keep showing up at the same table. They got heads up in the £1,000 PLO event at EPT London last year, and Tahkokallio took the victory for £30,000. MacPhee ended up with the bigger prize, however, when he beat Tahkokallio heads up at EPT Berlin Main Event for €1 million. They're seated together again tonight, and Tahkokallio got the best of Kevin in this one:

They were heads up by the time the board had completed {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. Ilari checked to Kevin, and bet 2,500. Then Tahkokallio check-raised him all in. MacPhee shook his head, knowing he'd been caught, and folded with only 3,600 behind. Tahkokallio took the pot and moved up to 16,000.
