Sormunen Finds Huge River Hero Call to Bust Helin
Level 16
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A pot of around 200,000 had developed on a completed board of 9♣4♥3♠8♦K♦, in a hand between Pasi Sormunen under the gun and Joonas Helin in the next seat.
Sormunen slid out a blocker bet of 25,000, and went into the tank when Helin jammed for 254,000. After around two minutes, Sormunen suddenly made the call.
Helin tabled A♦Q♥ for ace-high, and Sormunen thumped the table in celebration after he took the pot with 8♠5♠ for third pair eights.
