Mikael Haapaniemi opened to 12,000 from the cutoff, and Adria Comas defended the big blind.
The 7♠5♥3♥ flop was checked to the 3♦ turn, where Comas led out with a bet of 22,000, which failed to shake off his opponent.
The J♦ river completed the board and was checked through.
Comas confidently tabled A♥5♠ for two pair, fives and threes, but Haapaniemi took the pot with 9♦7♥ for the better two pair, sevens and threes.

Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 35th episode, Connor talks with No Filter Poker Series founder Mounir Tajiou about growing up in Sweden, working as a high court judge, playing professional soccer, making a deep run in the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, and the new No Filter Poker Series, which values fun at the table over poker strategy.
We also hear from 1998 Main Event champion Scotty Nguyen, reigning WSOP champ Michael Mizrachi and Finnish poker legend Juha Helppi about their involvement with the No Filter Poker tour.
