Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

On a {q-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades} board with what looked to be about 100,000 already in the pot, Juha Helppi bet 13,000. His heads-up opponent, Demosthenes Kiriopoulos, was on the button and raised to 62,000.

Helppi took an inventory of his chips before releasing his cards into the muck.
