Estonian Jesus Does Not Survive the Day

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante
Rauno Tahvonen
Rauno Tahvonen

Rauno Tahvonen, otherwise known as "Estonian Jesus" has just been eliminated from the Day 1 field. It doesn't appear he will re-enter today with 20 minutes left on the blind level but might opt to do so tomorrow before Day 2 begins.

With about 16,000 in chips to start the hand, Tahvonen opened with a min-raise of 1,200 from late position and got a call from Team OlyBet pros Carmen-Elina Vist and Dmitrijs Meless.

Vist bet 1,600 on the {q-}{9-}{5-} rainbow flop. Meless folded before Tahvonen raised to 4,700 and Vist called.

Vist check-called an all-in bet from Tahvonen of around 10,000 when the {6-} appeared on the turn. Tahvonen turned over {a-}{k-} and needed help against Vist who held {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for top pair.

A blank spiked the river and Tahvonen packed up his personal belongings for the day. Meless shared after the hand he folded {8-}{7-} and would have had the straight on the turn if the action didn't chase him out of the pot before then.
