Markku Koplimaa was well-known in Estonia even before he won the EPT National Barcelona this summer for €585,000. He enters just about every Main Event that comes to Tallinn, so it is no surprise he is already in action at the Coolbet Open Main Event.
So far so good for Koplimaa as he just won a decent pot. He check-called a bet of 1,150 into a pot of under 2,000 after the came on the flop. Koplimaa checked again before he called a bigger bet from his opponent of 4,250 after the came on the turn.
Both players checked after the came on the river. Koplimaa turned over and won the pot with the second nut flush after his opponent tossed his hand into the muck.
