Hand 74: Helppi Crippled

Juha Helppi
Juha Helppi
Helppi moved all in for 91,000 with {A-Hearts}{9-Spades} and got called by Andy Black with {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

Flop: {4-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Turn: {8-Clubs}
River: {5-Diamonds}

Juha is crippled but not quite out. He is left with 9,000 in chips -- less than a big blind.

Hand 73: de Wolfe OUT

Phil Hellmuth moved all in for 134,000 with {10-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} from first position.

Roland de Wolfe with his small blind in only has 8,000 behind and he wakes up with {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}. He makes the call.

Tony G in the big blind has a tough decision with {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

Hellmuth: "I want you to call."
Tony G: "Why?"
Hellmuth: "I think I have the best hand but if I don't, I also think I'll outdraw you."
Tony G: "I'll lay it down."

Hellmuth: "I'm kind of rooting for you Roland."
de Wolfe: "Can you muck then?"

Flop: {6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and de Wolfe is still ahead.
Turn is the {3-Clubs} giving Hellmuth a flush draw.
River is the {J-Clubs} and a backdoor flush for Hellmuth eliminates Roland.

Roland de Wolfe's pot plant strategy almost paid off, but he is out in incredibly unlucky circumstances.
