Helppi Helps Himself

Juha Helppi raised to 800 from the cutoff, and looked a little irked to be called by Tom Dwan on the button and Cedric Kolstad and Lauri Keinonen in the blinds.

The flop came down {6-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades} and Kolstad checked to Keinonen, who bet 1,200. Helppi promptly raised to 5,000 and took the pot down there, a welcome boost to his stack on a table largely reduced to small stacks by the towering monster that is Jamie "The Chronic" Rosen's hoard.
