From the small blind, Jyri Merivirta flicked in a fifth bet on the 4♠10♠Q♠ flop to put himself all in for 43,000. Yehuda Buchalter in middle position and Olli Kokko on the button were also involved in the pot, and they both called to the 2♣ turn.
Buchalter checked it over to Kokko, who created a side pot with a check. Buchalter called, but he quickly forfeited the pot when Kokko bet again on the J♣ turn.
Kokko revealed A♠6♠6♦2♥ for the nut flush, leaving the K♣Q♥Q♦8♠ of Merivirta in the dust and sending his fellow countryman to the exit.
