Parssinen Chips at Mellon

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Eelis Parssinen opened to 11,000 from the cutoff and saw Phillipp Mellon defend his big blind.

The 10QJ flop was check-called by Mellon after Parssinen bet 7,000. A K turn was checked by both to see the A river, and the pair checked quickly again to showdown.

Parssinen showed his JJXxXx for a set, but Mellon had the straight holding K9XxXx.

The next hand saw Parssinen open to 11,000 from under the gun, and Mellon called from the small blind.

A A2J flop prompted Mellon to check-fold after Parssinen bet 9,000.
