: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Erik Hellman had been building his stack slowly today but he just took a bit of a dent. A player opened for 4,700 and Hellmann three-bet him to 10,700. This was met, after a pause, with an all-in.
Hellman asked for a rough count, heard it was 48,000 and made the call. His opponent turned over 
and Hellman showed 
.
His opponent stood up to face his fate and the dealer put out 
and Hellman’s opponent gave out a cry of “Yes.” before apologising and explaining that he never celebrated and never got lucky.
Hellman quietly handed over the chips joking that he was going to pay him off in small chips.
