Henri Ojala Eliminated During Hand-For-Hand Play; Splits Prize Money With Cunningham and Kirwan
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
On the stone bubble, Henri Ojala got his final 130,000 chips from the hijack against Stephen Groom in the cutoff.
Henri Ojala: 8?8? 
Stephen Groom: Q?Q?
The flop of 7?9?6? gave Ojala a straight draw, but the 6? turn brought him no help. Groom made the better full house with the 6? on the river and Ojala was eliminated on the bubble of the Irish Open Main Event after making the final table last year.
Luckily for him, Sean Cunningham and Gary Kirwan busted simultaneously on different tables, resulting in the three players sharing two min-cashes, resulting in €1,173 awarded to each player.
