Helppi Continues to Climb
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jamil Wakil opened on the button and Juha Helppi defended his big blind.
Helppi check-called a 4,000 bet from Wakil on the 10♥A♣3♥ flop and then both players checked on the 9♦ turn.
The A♥ filled the river and Helppi led out for 10,000. Wakil looked him up and Helppi turned over K♥10♦. Wakil couldn't beat it and mucked — awarding the pot to Helppi.
