Second and Third for the Finn

Ville Wahlbeck raised from early position and Phil Hellmuth called as he did on every street when the Finn bet. The finished board was {Q-Spades} {8-Hearts} {7-Spades} {K-Hearts} {9-Spades}. Wahlbeck rivered a flush with {A-Spades} {2-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} and took the pot.

On a side note Hellmuth is complaining that his current dealer isn't separating his hands properly after he cuts the deck. Hellmuth has been known to complain about this before but it's always when he's on a losing streak!


The very next hand Wahlbeck eliminated the last Dutchman standing in Rob Hollink.

Wahlbeck -- 310,000
Hellmuth -- 175,000.
