Jani Vilmunen Eliminated

Jani Vilmunen - Eliminated
Jani Vilmunen - Eliminated
Jani Vilmunen opened for a raise to 20,000 from early position. Action folded around to Gert Andersen in the big blind, who made the call.

The flop came {7-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} and Andersen checked. Vilmunen opened for a bet of 48,000 and Andersen raised to 105,000. Vilmunen moved all in and Andersen called. The players showed:

Andersen: {7-Clubs} {7-Spades}
Vilmunen: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

Andersen had hit the flop hard and left Vilmunen's overpair in bad shape. The turn and river were no help to either player falling the {K-Spades} and {10-Clubs} respectively.

Jani Vilmunen was eliminated and Gert Andersen now works with just over 610,000 chips.
