Nuutinen Doubles Through Silver
Max Silver oepned the hijack to 80,000 with 
. Next door neighbor Jorma Nuutinen shoved all in from the cut off with 
and all players quickly folded to let Silver have the decision again. He thought for a little bit before calling.
Nuutinen was in the lead, but not by much. The flop made things pretty scary for the Finnish player: 
. Kings and jacks weren't direct outs anymore for Silver, but all the clubs in the deck would guarantee him the win in the hand and the first scalp of the day.
The 
on the turn was a complete blank though and equity was shifting even more to Nuutinen. The black ten on the river might have scared him for a second but fortunately for him it was the 
and not the 
.
Nuutinen doubled to 1.7 million (42 big blinds), Silver still has 4,985,000 (125 big blinds) left.
