Joentastic!
The biggest Borussia Dortmund fan that was still remaining in the tournament has just been knocked out by chip leader Aku Joentausta. Denis Sagorski was supporting his favorite club since the start of the tournament wearing a bright yellow sweater and the fact that his team is facing Real Madrid tonight might've factored into his decision just now. At least that's what the players at the table were saying.
The action of this enormous pot started out with a normal raise to 15,000 from Robert Auer who was in the cutoff. The button folded and Joentausta three-bet to 41,000 from the small blind. Sagorski was seated in the big blind and tanked for a bit before making it 100,000 to go. Auer quickly folded his cards and the action was back on Joentausta.
The young finnish pro tanked for a solid minute before slamming a large stack of yellow 5,000 chips into the pot.
"All in," Sagorski announced immediately and Joentausta immediately had a look of defeat in his eyes. This lasted only for a little while though as both players turned over their cards.
Aku Joentausta: 
Denis Sagorski: 
The board ran out 
and Sagorski quietly left the tournament area.
"Maybe it was personal because of the hand before," Joentausta said as the players at the table were trying to figure out what just happened.
"I thought you were dead," Team Pro Theo Jorgensen said with a smile emphasizing that Sagorski had not shown any crazy moves before this one.
"I was hating myself when he said all in," Joentausta replied. "Maybe it's because of the way I look because nobody ever believes me," he added. Joentausta sure looks like a young agressive kid but his hand was still a little better than Sagorski's and he now has a huge chip lead.
