Incredible Hero Call and Double for Halme Keeps Bubble Alive
Antti Halme raised to 15,000 and start-of-the-day chip leader Woohyuk Yang three-bet to 50,000 out of the small blind, which Halme called. On the flop, Yang continued for 30,000 and was called before a second barrel worth 60,000 on the was called once more.
The river completed the board and Yang checked for the remaining stack of Halme, which was more than 220,000. He then pulled one stack worth 100,000 forward, gave it two minutes of consideration and he added a second stack without announcing any action. Finally, Yang moved all in and Halme was taken aback.
He leaned back and started some table talk, but Yang gave away no reaction. Four minutes passed and the Finn announced "Okay I call," and Yang immediately sighed, then turned over . Halme showed for just top pair, and that was enough to score a double for 226,500. Players watching the action around the table started clapping and the Finn jumped into second place overall. The money bubble is still going on.
