Jens Kyllonen Doubles Through Dan Smith; Takes Commanding Lead

 

Dan Smith raises the pot from the button for 1,050,000 and Jens Kyllonen calls in the big blind.

The flop comes     and Kyllonen bets the pot for 2,250,000. Smith raises the pot and Kyllonen calls all in to put himself at risk. Smith doesn't have him covered by much, though, and the cards are tabled.

Kyllonen:     
Smith:     

Upon seeing the cards of his opponent, Smith immediately claps and his rail starts cheering, while Kyllonen's rail shows their support as well.

The   turn is a blank, but the   river improves Kyllonen to two pair and he doubles up. The stacks are counted and Kyllonen is all in for 6,600,000, leaving Smith short.

Jens Kyllonen - 15,450,000 (51 bb)
Dan Smith - 1,750,000 (5 bb)
