Misclick Sends Piiroinen Crashing Out

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Shawn Stroke raised to 3,000 under the gun, and Riku Piiroinen potted it to 10,500 from the hijack. The action returned to Stroke, who four-bet to 33,000.

Piiroinen went deep into the tank, spending several minutes deciding what to do. He hadn't realised that Stroke had initially raised when he potted it, and was now in the blender, having put one third of his stack into the middle.

Ultimately, he called the raise, leaving 1,100 behind.

The dealer spread a 2610 flop, and Stroke set Piiroinen all in, who called.

Riku Piiroinen: A1095 All in
Shawn Stroke: AKJ5

It was all over on the J turn, as Stroke improved to a flush.

A frustrated Piiroinen could do nothing more than hand his chips over and head to the exit, as the dealer completed the board with the 3.
