Santtu Leinonen Eliminated in 20th Place ($10,632)

Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised under the gun to 100,000 and the action folded around to Santtu Leinonen in the big blind and he made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q?J?8? and Leinonen jammed his remaining stack in the middle. Negreanu asked for a count and after hearing it was 250,000 he took about a minute and dropped a stack of greens across the line.
Santtu Leinonen: J?9?5?2?
Daniel Negreanu: K?K?5?2?
Leinonen flopped a pair and a straight draw but couldn't pull ahead of Negreanu's pair of kings as the board completed with the Q? on the turn and 4? on the river.
