Jouhkimainen Soars to the Top Spot
Level 11
: 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Joni Jouhkimainen had previously won a large pot and then bet a heads-up river of 
for 18,000, which Phil Galfond called. The Finn tabled 
for not only a straight but also flush to win the pot.
Erik Seidel then got it in with the 
on a flop of 
and Jouhkimainen looked him up holding the 
. Neither the 
turn nor the 
river produced a miracle for Seidel and the next pot was pushed to Jouhkimainen.
