Kivelio Continues to Excel

After an early slump today, Aarno Kivelio is beginning to return to his form from yesterday and has now recaptured the chip lead after taking a chunky pot off neighbour and fellow Finn Jani Vilmunen.

With Vilmunen button raisng to 80,000 preflop, Kivelio made the call in the big blind and the two players saw a {5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{K-Spades} flop. Kivelio bet 100,000 and Vilmunen called. On the {8-Clubs} turn, Kivelio led again, this time for 200,000, and again, Vilmunen made the call.

On the {Q-Spades} river, Kivelio broke his trend - and robbed us of a 1-2-3 of consecutive bets - by checking, and Vilmumen checked behind. Kivelio's {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs} was enough to pick up the pot.
