Sihvo Takes On The Big Stack, And Wins

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Lari Sihvo is not afraid to mix it up with small suited connectors, having won a huge amount of chips from the now-busto Nikolas Liakos with {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and now he has just won a decent pot from our chip leader, Grzegorz Cichocki with {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

On a flop reading {5-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Spades} Cichocki check-raised Sihvo's 11,000 bet to 23,000 but it was not enough to fold out the Finn as he called. The turn was the {4-Clubs} and Cichocki bet 52,000 and was quickly called. The Pole slowed down when the {J-Hearts} showed up on the river, opting to check but then call Sihvo's 84,000 bet.

Sihvo turned over {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a straight, a hand that Cichocki could not beat and he mucked.
