Mattila Hiding His Mini-Stack

Level 14: 1,500/3,000 (3,000)
Entries: 64/328

Jussi Mattila, who loves piling as many chips into one stack as possible, called over the media.

“How much do you think I have?” asked Mattila while covering his chips.

“It depends on how big your hands are,” we responded.

Mattila took his hands away from his stack and he said just about six big blinds.

The next hand was dealt after this exchange, Mattila got his short stack in. The hand began with Sebastian Wahl opening for 6,500 from the cutoff. Mattila jammed for 17,500 from the small blind and Wahl snap-called.

Jussi Mattila: K K
Sebastian Wahl: Q 10

The table laughed about how strong Mattila’s hand was.

“Good game,” Mattila said while still ahead of the hand due to his opponent flopping top pair and other outs on the 10 9 8 flop. Both the 7 turn and 2 river were safe for Mattila as he got back into his seat with a little more breathing room.

Sebastian Wahl – 240,000
Jussi Mattila – 41,000
