Helppi Downs BetMGM Poker Qualifier and Weissman
A BetMGM Poker qualifier jammed for 4,000 from middle position and was called by Juha Helppi on hid direct left. Joey Weissman defended his big blind, which left him with 13,500 behind.
Weissman check-called for 4,000 on the Q?J?2? flop, bringing in the 8? turn. Weissman checked once more and then called for his tournament life after Helppi put him all in.
BetMGM Poker Qualifier: A?6?
Joey Weissman: K?Q?
Juha Helppi: A?Q?
Helppi and Weissman had a pair of queens, but the ace kicker put Helppi in front. The 10? completed the board to secure the double elimination for Helppi.
Weissman then headed to reentry desk and now has a fresh stack of 40,000. However, if Weissman busts again today, he will have to wait until tomorrow's Day 1b to have another crack of the whip.
