Helppi Reenters After Being Outkicked
Livello 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Andras Nemeth open-raised from the button before Juha Helppi three-bet to 20,000 from the small blind. Nemeth put in the call, leading to a 2♠J♥9♥ flop being dealt.
Helppi checked to Nemeth, who put in a bet of 15,000 chips. Helppi then raised to 75,000, over half his stack, and Nemeth shrugged as he shoved. Helppi made a quick call and the cards went on their backs.
Juha Helppi: K♥J♦
Andras Nemeth: A♠J♣
Both players paired their jack, but Nemeth had the better kicker with his ace. The A♥ turn gave him two pair. The Q♣ river completed the board and Helppi was already headed to the reentry desk.
