Marco Johnson and Juha Helppi Dueling for Table Control

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante

With the game now three-handed, seasoned pros Marco Johnson and Juha Helppi are battling to take control of this final table.

Johnson has emerged victorious more times than not, chipping away at the dangerous native of Finland with strategic three-bets and creative plays.

One hand saw Johnson raise his button, and then call Helppi's reraise to take a {10-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop.

Helppit led out for a bet, Johnson called, and the turn came {5-Spades}. Both players checked fourth street, and the {9-Spades} completed the board on the river.

Two taps of the table later, Johnson rolled over the {5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for a runner-runner two pair.

Helppi winced when he saw the bad news, squeezing his cards a few times before flashing the {a-}{9-}.
