Alakorva Shouts in Joy
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Veli-Pekka Alakorva is well-known around Finland and surrounding countries for his enthusiasm. Players know when he is screaming in joy not to take it personally.
Alakorva limped from the button before Timo Rantamäki raised the action to 12,400 from the small blind.
Alakorva called and the 
came on the flop. Rantamäki jammed for about 25,000 and Alakorva called.
Timo Rantamäki: 
Veli-Pekka Alakorva: 
Alakorva screamed in joy so loud people downstairs in the casino likely heard it when he found out he was ahead in the hand.
Rantamäki was unable to catch up after the 
appeared on the turn and the 
came on the river.
