Guagenti Continuing in the Right Direction; Helppi on the Short Stack
Level 27
: Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante
Nick Guagenti continued to be on a bit of a heater, winning more pots to get himself back in the lead.
He won a decent-sized pot off of Joseph Brodsky by turning trips on 5?9?J?5?. The river was the K?, Brodsky checked and Guagenti bet. Brodsky called but had to accept the bad news after Guagenti flipped over A?5x. Brodsky showed the table a king for rivered kings up.
Guagenti won a few smaller pots after that and is again in a substantial chip lead, while Helppi can’t seem to get anything going, losing pots to multiple players. He is now on a very short stack with around 420,000.
