Virtanen Wins From Do

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

There are 21 entrants so far in the PokerStars Festival Manila High Roller Shot Clock, with a third of the entrants opting for some high stakes stress relief by bringing fidget spinners.

While current frontrunner Edward Yam is not one of them Finland��s Aki Virtanen is and he has just won a sizable pot from Hoang Long Do.

Maxim Sorokin was the man to open the action with a hi-jack raise to 700 with Yam (button), Do (small blind) and Virtanen (big blind) all making the call to take the action four-way to a flop of {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

With so many players in the hand, no one seemed keen to bet and the action was checked around to the {5-Clubs}. This saw Do take a stab for 1,200 from the small blind before big blind Virtanen re-raised to 4,000 in total.

This was enough to fold out everyone but Do, who burned through almost all of the allotted 30-seconds of time before making the call.

The {3-Hearts} river paired the board and saw Do check the action over to Virtanen, who bet 6,725. This sent Do deep into the tank where he remained for the full 30-seconds and burned the first of his three time bank chips before making the call.

Virtanen rolled over {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, which was enough to win the hand as Do mucked.
