Skuli Sigfusson limped from the Cut-off before Yevhen Pavlenko made it 4,000 on the Button. Seated right next to him, Raivo Grislis raised it up to 10,000; there was a pot brewing. When the decision was back on Sigfusson, he moved all in for 31,000. After a minute’s worth of consideration, Pavlenko re-shoved for 22,000. “What is this?!” Grislis monologued as he contemplated his decision. “It looks too strong,” he ultimately concluded, and let his hand go.

Skuli Sigfusson: 33
Yevhen Pavlenko: AJ

As Sigfusson and Pavlenko tabled their holdings, Grislis looked astonished; he couldn’t believe it. The whole table burst out laughing, and Grislis joined in; he obviously folded the best hand. Nevertheless, he was happy that he did; Sigfusson hit a set on the 1039 flop, and as the board completed with 2J, Pavlenko’s tournament life came to an end.

Raivo Grislis: 77,500
Skuli Sigfusson: 61,000
Yevhen Pavlenko: 0
