Kakkonen Slipping
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Mika Kakkonen started Level 27 as the chipleader, but has been trending nothing but down over the past hour. Just now, he had to surrender another batch of chips to Pablo Rodero, who jumped over the Fin in the process.
Once the river was dealt on a 
, it was Kakkonen who fired 180,000. Rodero put in a small raise to 375,000 and Kakkonen paid it off. Rodero showed 
for top two pair, which proved too much for Kakkonen as the Fin folded his hand.
