Helppi-less

I arrived just in time to see Juha Helppi calling all in for 12,000.

The board read {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, and as assailant Eli Elezra revealed {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, Helppi simply mucked his hand.

The dealer did the honours and flipped {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, and after an academic and somewhat salt-in-wounds-rubbing {10-Diamonds} river, the Finn was gone.

Elezra, meanwhile, is back up to 57,500 after enduring more ups and downs than the New York New York roller coaster
