Heavy Metal Crushes No Bluff

Voitto Rintala (a heavy metal musician from Finland who played bass in bands such as Random Eyes and Renascent) crippled local favorite Kenny "No Bluff" Wong. I caught the end of the hand as Rintala stood up and pumped his fist in the air. The dealer was shipping him the pot. The board read {K-Spades} {J-Spades} {9-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {6-Clubs} . Rintala had {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} against Wong's {9-Hearts} {9-Spades} . Ouch. Boat over boat. Both players were all in and Wong had Rintala covered. After the hand, Rintala jumped out to the early chip lead with almost 20,000 while Wong slipped to 300.
