Väistö Soars to the Top
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
"You are running hot," another player at the table remarked when Joni Väistö collected a big pot, having just busted Kaido Mikk. It was a setup hand in which both players flopped a set. To make matters worse, Väistö turned the nuts as his 5♣5♠ improved to quads on the K♠5♥3♥5♦K♥ board to leave Mikk's 3♣3♠ for treys full second-best.
