Hirvonen Wins a Massive Pot

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Mikko Hirvonen
Mikko Hirvonen

After a raise and a call in front of him, Mikko Hirvonen three-bet on the button. Gerrit Muller was in the big blind and stuck in a four-bet to 26,000. The action was folded back to Hirvonen who five-bet jammed for 114,500. Muller had him covered and made the call.

Mikko Hirvonen: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Gerrit Muller: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Hirvonen was in a dominating position heading to the flop of {j-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}. The {9-Clubs} on the turn provided some chop outs but the {8-Diamonds} bricked off as Hirvonen scored a massive double up. Muller was back to a short stack after recently busting Michael Soyza while Hirvonen soared over 200,000 chips.
