Helppi Wins Without Showdown
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Cesar Garcia opened to 21,000 from the cutoff, Juha Helppi called from the button, and Ole Schemion defended from the big blind.
The flop came 9♦3♠4♥. Action checked around to Helppi, who bet 30,000. Only Garcia called.
Helppi fired a second barrel for 85,000 on the 7♣ turn, and this time Garcia mucked his hand.
