"Weird Finnish Dynamics" Result in Split Pot
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The action folded to Dan Tolppanen in the small blind and he raised it up to 2,500. Esa Valliaro then three-bet to 10,000 only for Tolppanen to move all-in with the covering stack.
Valliaro suspected a flip and sigh-called all-in for some 40 big blinds.
Esa Valliaro: 
Dan Tolppanen: 
The split pot was guaranteed by the turn on the 
board. "I folded eight deuce," table big stack Jon Persent joked while Tolppanen replied "we have weird Finnish dynamics" before telling Valliaro he would have probably not called all-in with the ace-ten.
