Ilari Sahamies went from 40k to nearly out just now as a couple of hands shrunk his stack to the all-in-preflop sort of size. The most dramatic was against Dennis Phillips, who called two streets with {A-?}

{A-?}

{J-?}

, 2,200 on a {J-?}

{J-?}

{6-?}

{6-Diamonds}

flop, and 6,800 on a {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

turn. Both players checked the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

river and Phillips' Jacks were good - Sahamies held {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

for a worse-kickered pair which had picked up a flush draw on the turn which failed to materialise.

Moments later and Sahamies had the rest of his stack in preflop with Tens against David Williams' Kings - but a turned Ten saved his bacon and gave him another shot at chip accumulating in this last level of the day.
