Helin Uses His Stand-Up Equity
Nivel 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Michel Molenaar raised from under the gun and Joonas Helin shoved from middle position for almost 80,000. When the action got back to Molenaar, he made the call which put Helin at risk.
Joonas Helin: K♣Q♥ 
Michel Molenaar: A♠Q♦
"King," shouted Helin.
There wasn't much for Helin to celebrate on the 5♥5♦7♥ flop and by the time the 9♣ landed on the turn he was already up and out of his seat with his bag over his shoulder. However, the stand-up trick seemed to work for the Helin as the K♦ rolled off on the river, which gave him a pair of kings and earned him a double-up.
