Knight Improves to a Full House to Bust Saaskilahti
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Curtis Knight opened 60,000 in the hijack and Lauri Saaskilahti called in the cutoff.
The dealer fanned a flop of 8♠3♦2♣ and Knight check-raised a bet of 60,000 to 220,000. Saaskilahti paused for a moment before announcing all-in for roughly 775,000 and Knight instantly dropped chips across the line to make the call.
Lauri Saaskilahti: 4♣4♥
Curtis Knight: K♥K♠
Saaskilahti ran into the pocket kings of Knight and the 8♦ turn and K♦ river improved Knight to a full house as Saaskilahti exited the tournament.
