Level 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Joni Jouhkimainen raised to 2,400 in the small blind and Krasimir Yankov called in the big blind.

On the 10♥7♥4♠ flop, Jouhkimainen started with a check, and he then called a bet of 2,000 from Yankov.

Jouhkimainen checked again on the 5♣ turn. Yankov bet 6,900 and Jouhkimainen put in the call.

On the 6♦ river, Jouhkimainen checked for a third time to Yankov who announced a bet of 8,500. Jouhkimainen then check-raised to 50,000. After burning through two time extentions, Yankov decided to let it go, and Jouhkimainen won without showdown.
