Juha Vilkki and Benjamin Palmer got all of the chips into the middle before the flop and a seat at tomorrow's final table was on the line.
Showdown:
Vilkki: 
Palmer: 
With both players holding pocket aces, the young Finn began smiling devilishly and held up his , saying "I'm playing this one, this is my card." The dealer burned and turned, spreading a flop of 
across the felt. The flop actually changed little and both Vilkki and Palmer were still playing their pair of aces, although now Vilkki's chosen six provided additional outs to take the pot.
The turn card came 
and changed nothing. Vilkki was still holding his six up in the air, as if anticipating what was to come next.
River: 
Roland Israelashvili practically shot out of his chair when the final six hit the board and asked Vilkki in amazement, "How do you know... how can you know this?"
The Finnish online regular who has been playing since he was younger than 16 years of age simply shrugged his shoulders in response, still flashing that devilish grin as the pot was shipped his way. He had just hit the river to claim the entire pot, stamping his ticket to the final table with flair. Juha Vilkki will enter the final table arena as the massive chip leader after this improbable win, holding a stack of 1,235,000, nearly double that of any other player.
Palmer was understandably devastated by the loss but accepted defeat graciously, and he will take home $16,511 for his deep run in this event.

Day 2 of Event #22 at the World Series of Poker, the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha tournament, has come to an end with 117 players having been carved down to our final nine. The action on the felt was fast and furious right from the start and the Amazon Room was filled calls of “Pot!” and “Re-pot!” all night long.
Our Day 1 chip leader, Yuha Vilkki of Finland, continued his dominant play to finish at the top of the leaderboard once again. After a highly entertaining last hand of the night, Vilkki sits with 1,235,000 chips heading into the final table, which puts him in the commanding position of having twice as many bullets as any of his fellow players.
The Binger brothers, Michael and Nick, both made their exits during the middle of Day 2, although Nick fought valiantly to survive after taking a bad beat which left him with only 2,500 chips. Good for a single big blind at the time, Binger showed why he is a true professional by never surrendering and building his tiny stack to over 40,000 in a monumental comeback, before eventually succumbing to the variance-heavy game that is Omaha.
Heading into Day 3’s final table action, this event will take on a distinctively foreign flair, with France and Finland being represented by two of the more aggressive players in the field. Check in with PokerNews tomorrow at 2:30 PST for all of the final table action as a new Pot-Limit Omaha champion is crowned.
