Kelopuro Cashes Out

Sami Kelopuro only had 215,000 chips left at the last break, the second-shortest stack in the room. He didn't waste any time getting those chips in with {K-Hearts} {5-Spades}, and he was behind but drawing live against Guy Gorelik's {A-Spades} {7-Spades}. "Run it twice," Erick Lindgren suggested with a smirk, hinting at Kelopuro's reputation as an online shark.

The {8-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {6-Clubs} flop was a swing and a miss for "LarsLuzak", and he was dead to six outs. Fourth street brought one of them, the {K-Spades}, and Kelopuro let out a spicy, "Oooh," at the sight of the sweaty turn card. He was ahead now, but he had to fade the aces and the spades to stay alive.

River: {3-Spades}

That's all she wrote for the online legend, relegated to the rail with about 110 players left.
