The hijack opens to 1,600 and is called by the player on the button. Elvis Toomas (pictured) is in the big blind and defends, bringing a flop of Diamond QClub 8Spade 8. Toomas checks to the original raiser, who also checks, and the player on the button goes all in for 7,100. Toomas confirms the amount and then calls, with the original raiser folding to let the two have at it.
