Tsouloftas Pays Off Vaaraniemi
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The clock had already been paused and the rest of the field was wandering around waiting for the three-table redraw while Georgios Tsouloftas and Elias Vaaraniemi continued to tangle in a pot.
Vaaraniemi bet 75,000 from the cutoff on a flop of Q♣A♥9♠ and Tsouloftas called in the small blind. Both players checked the Q♥ turn and the 6♦ fell on the river.
Vaaraniemi then bet 205,000 and Tsouloftas again called. Vaaraniemi showed A♦J♣ for two pair and Tsouloftas mucked.
