Level 16
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Rantala then moved all in and Rutherford called for 136,000. Rantala showed A?Q? for top pair, but Rutherford had K?K?. The river was the 10? and Rutherford doubled up while Rantala, who began the day in the top five on the leaderboard, dropped down to around 80,000.
