Ilari Tahkokallio Eliminated in 21st Place (£5,624)

First in from the button, Ilari Tahkokallio raised to 4,500, and Andrew Pantling called from the big blind to go heads up the rest of the way.

The flop came {9-Hearts} {8-Spades} {10-Spades}, and what an action flop it was. Pantling checked, and Tahkokallio continued out with 6,500 more chips. Pantling promptly shoved all in, and Tahkokallio was stuck with {9-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}, forced to call even though he didn't really seem to love it. And with good reason. Pantling flipped over {7-Clubs} {J-Clubs} for the made straight, and he was poised for another knockout.

The turn {4-Diamonds} changed nothing in Tahkokallio's favor, and the {3-Hearts} on the river ushered him out the door in 21st place.

A chip count for Pantling is coming as soon as he finishes tidying up his piles a bit.
