Ylitalo Hits the Rail
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Robin Ylitalo made a min-raise from middle position, leaving only 8,000 chips behind. Fabio Peluso called from his direct left, and Stanislav Anufriiev also called from the big blind.
The dealer put out the 8?K?J? flop, and the action checked to Peluso, who made a minimum bet. Anufriiev folded, and Ylitalo called.
Robin Ylitalo: J?7? 
Fabio Peluso: K?J?
"I thought that was a good flop for me," Ylitalo said when he saw that his pair of jacks was crushed by the top two pairs of his opponent. The turn was the 5?, giving Ylitalo many outs, but the 6? on the river was none of them, and he exited the tournament.
