Vaaraniemi Vanquishes Mao
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Renji Mao was getting up out of his chair, looking slightly stunned as his A♣K♦ came off worst against Elias Vaaraniemi's 4♥4♣ on a board of 3♠3♥2♦5♦4♦.
Mao had rivered a straight, but the river was also good to Vaaraniemi, who was ahead the whole way, and had improved from two pair to a full house.
