It looks like the first Kings of Tallinn Main Event champion Ranno Sootla is here to play as they are nearly 170 big blinds deep when the following hand took place early in the stream.
Mathias Siljander opened for 1,000 from early position. Sootla jacked it up to 8,000 from the hijack. Siljander four-bet before Sootla snap five-bet shoved for around a starting stack of 50,000. Siljander called and was far ahead.
Ranno Sootla: A♠10♥
Mathias Siljander: A♥K♥
Both players improved to top pair on the Q♣3♦8♥2♥A♦ runout. Sootla’s kicker problems came into play and Sootla was down to 1,100. He lost these chips when his A♠8♥ shove were no good against Juha Helppi’s A♥Q♣ with Helppi also winning a side pot against Knaapinen with 5♠5♦ before getting out of the way on the 10♦Q♦7♣ flop.
Mathias Siljander – 102,000
Juha Helppi – 60,000
Matias Knappinen – 42,000
Ranno Sootla – 0
