Mikael Johansson Eliminated

Mikael Johansson - Eliminated
Mikael Johansson - Eliminated
Action folded around to Jason Glass in late position and he raised to 44,000. Mikael Johansson moved all in for 220,000 from the cutoff seat and when action folded back to Glass, he made the call. The players showed:

Glass: {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Johansson: {6-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}

Despite flopping an inside straight draw, and turning a "double gutter," Johansson got no help from the {7-Clubs} {5-Spades} {3-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {5-Hearts} board and was eliminated in 141st place. Glass took down the pot and now works with a stack of just over 700,000 chips.
