The 4♥ turn saw Helppi check again. This time he responded with a raise after his opponent fired another bet. The button player called to see a river.
The K♣ river completed the board and Helppi bet. His opponent thought for a few moments, then called. Helppi tabled K♦Q♦ for the flopped trips that had improved to a boat on the river to take down the pot and send his chip stack towards the top in the room.

Scott Seiver won his fifth World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet and in doing so may have secured his place in the Poker Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible next year.
Seiver, a longtime pro from New York who poker fans may remember from his appearance on the Big Game in the early 2010s, took down Event #10: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship (8-Handed) for $426,744 after an intense and grueling final table battle that eventually saw him denying Jonathan Cohen a second bracelet.
Seiver turns 40 next April and thus will be eligible for the Poker Hall of Fame, a club home to other five-plus bracelet winners like Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Johnny Chan, Erik Seidel and Phil Hellmuth.
Not only is the Hall of Fame already on Seiver's mind, it's the 39-year-old's primary motivator.
