No Need to Show for Larsen

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Birger Larsen limped from early position and Juha Helppi in the small blind followed suit. Ravi Shankar in the big blind checked his option taking them to showdown.

The flop came K27. After a check from the blinds, Larson fired 65,000. Helppi called but Shankar moved out of the way.

Both players checked the J turn. On the river K, Helppi announced all-in for 2,540,000. Larsen who only had 205,000. After taking time to mull things over, he called prompting Helppi to muck his hand.

Larsen scooped the pot without showing his hand.
