We joined Table 7 to see the player in Seat 1 all in for 3,750 after a flop of . There were about 15,000 chips already in the middle of the table, and Jukka Juvonen had enough in his stack to make the near-automatic call with just his lowly . The all-in player was well ahead with , but someone at the table had an ugly premonition: "This is going to be so sick."
The turn was a very safe though, reducing Juvonen's outs to just two. We'll let the floor person announce the river for you:

Juvonen is quite possibly the chip leader in the room with about 82,000 after that knockout ace on the river.
