Ylitalo Hits the River to Leave Koplimaa With Crumbs
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Markku Koplimaa raised to 240,000 from under the gun before Santiago Plante three-bet to 800,000 in the small blind. Koplimaa, with around 900,000 remaining, quickly folded.
Koplimaa would get even shorter the next hand as he and Robin Ylitalo went heads-up in a limped pot between the blinds. Both players checked the 4?9?6? flop.
The turn came the 10? and Koplimaa bet 120,000. Ylitalo called to the 2? river and checked over to Koplimaa again, who this time checked back.
Ylitalo showed 6?2? for rivered two pair and Koplimaa flashed the 6? as he mucked.
"Did I need to hit," Ylitalo asked as Koplimaa nodded.
