Finns Collide in the Blinds

Level 31
: 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded to a short-stacked Kimmo Kurko in the small blind and he moved all in for 1.43 million. Pasi Sormunen asked for a count from the big even before looking at his cards, and once he got it and looked at his card, he call.
Sormunen:
Kurko:
Sormunen had woken up with a legitimate hand, and it was in great shape against Kurko's one over. The flop wasn't anything special, but the
turn was! Kurko spiked his over to take the lead. The
river was of no consequence and Kurko doubled through his fellow countryman.
