Brunson and Helppi Tangle

Juha Helppi and Todd Brunson have been exchanging blows all day with Todd Brunson recently getting the better of a couple of significant pots.

The first one went to Helppi, but he didn't get a lot of action with his {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} on the {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} board.

A few moments later, Brunson fired 6,000 on the river on a board of {6-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs} with Helppi making the call. Brunson revealed {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for a full house to rake in the chips and move up to 47,500. Helppi is back to 22,000.
