Häkkinen Doubles Through Punkeri
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
The turn showed A♠8♣3♥4♣ and Juhan Punkeri checked. Verneri Häkkinen bet 1,500 and tossed in a T-5,000 chip. Punkeri then flipped in 5,500 chips because he somehow thought that was the bet sizing of his opponent. The floor confirmed it was a raise, as Punkeri then declared so and the rest of the table started to laugh.
Häkkinen then instantly pushed all-in for 25,500 and Punkeri reluctantly called thereafter.
Verneri Häkkinen: A♣Q♦ 
Juhan Punkeri: J♣3♣
Punkeri was very much alive but didn't get there with the 9♠ river to double Häkkinen.
