Too Little, Sointu-Late
Jani Sointula, who owing to his flowing blond locks was once featured in a list of the world's best female poker players, bet out 5,000 from the small blind on the turn of a board. The gentleman to his right on the button made the call.
They continued to the river and this time Sointula bet out 6,850 with less than 5,000 behind. Again, his opponent called, turning over . Sointula could only boast , and is now looking pretty unlikely to go much further in this tournament. Still, he has the £26,400 he picked up for 23rd place at the WSOPE Main Event a few days ago to console himself with.
