On the flop the Frenchman bet $4,400, got raised to $13,200, re-raised to $22,000, Taisto raised to $44,000 and called all-in.The Estonian player tried to flatten the variance and offered to run the turn and river three times, but was refused.

“Won 20k,” Karl tweeted . ''I just finished because it was raining heavily. I was sitting on the terrace, and without cigarettes I am not able to play for a long time. Linus, I don't know if you're reading this, but if you want to play expensive heads-up, I'm the one for you. Now my friend is waiting for me. Good luck to all.''
