Parssinen, Eljach Can't Get Out of Each Other's Way
Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Eelis Parssinen and Omar Eljach had just tangled in a massive pot where Eljach bet 225,000 on the river of a 4♦6♣3♠8♣K♥ board and Parssinen called, both players showing seven-five for a straight to split the pot.
They then got involved in another pot against each other, this time also involving Joni Jouhkimainen.
There was around 70,000 in the pot on a flop of Q♠2♥8♣ when Parssinen bet 23,000 from under the gun and Eljach called in the cutoff, while Jouhkimainen folded the big blind.
Both players then checked down the 10♦ turn and 7♥ river. "Aces," Parssinen said, showing A♣A♠9♠3♥ and Eljach nodded his head in acknowledgment before mucking.
