Helppi Starts the Main Event Strong
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
With roughly 3,000 in the pot, on a board of 4?10?9?4?, Cheng Zhao checked from the big blind and faced a bet of 2,000 from Juha Helppi in the cutoff. Zhao called.
On the 7? river Zhao checked again to which Helppi fired out a bet of 3,200. Zhao thought it over for around a minute before letting go of his cards and forfeiting the pot to Helppi.
