Ville-fied
Since the early demise of Michael Piper, it's pretty much fallen on Ville Salmi to carry the weight of 'Best facial hair in the tournament'. But sadly for all lovers of this catergory, the Finn with awesome beard has just been eliminated.
The flop was reading and Salmi had bet 10,200 only to be check-raised to 29,000 by Nathanael Filskov. Salmi tanked for a couple of minutes before declaring he was all-in, pushing for what looked like 100,000 more. Filskov thought for about a minute but then made the call and Salmi looked pained as he turned over to Filskov's .
Said the Finn, "I hoped you would fold a jack, maybe not ace-jack but most other jacks."
The turn gave Salmi additional outs but the river wasn't what he was looking for. Filskov chips up to around 350,000.
