Tournament: World Poker Tour - Paris @ the Aviation Club
Players in hand: Roland de Wolfe, Juha Helppi

Starting Hands
Roland de Wolfe - A, A 
Juha Helppi  - 9, 7

PreFlop
Roland de Wolfe - No slow play for the Wolf, he raises it up to 20k.
Juha Helppi -  Juha, only semi-joking, asks why so much as he wants to play friendly. He calls anyway.


The Flop - T, 9, 5
Roland de Wolfe - Hoping Juha has caught a piece, he pushes out 50k.
Juha Helppi - He did get a bite, but wants to play cheap. He just calls.


The Turn - 2
Roland de Wolfe - Another bet, for 60k.
Juha Helppi - No comment this time, but another call anyway.


The River -  3 
Roland de Wolfe - 80k bet into a 280k pot, hoping for a call.
Juha Helppi - No flush for Helppi, who guesses Roland has a ten. Either way, he folds, shipping the pot to the Englishman.
