Harmaa Sends Kettula in Tank
Day 1b has been a busy affair so far, with the tables in the second room of the venue filling up quickly as well. On one of those tables, PLO side event winner Mikko Harmaa and Torsti Kettula were heads up on a K♠2♣10♦ flop.
With 5,300 in the pot, Kettula bet 2,000 from the big blind, being called by Harmaa in the hijack. The Q♠ turn slowed down Kettula, as he checked over to Harmaa. Harmaa fired a bet of 5,000, which Kettula called.
The 5♣ arrived on the river. Kettula checked for a second time, prompting Harmaa to move all in for about 20,000. The players played similar stacks as the table had just opened up, and Kettula went deep into thought.
After five minutes or so, Kettula decided to fold his hand, seeing the sizable pot being shipped to Harmaa.
