Thorel Shows a Straight
Level 12
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Juha Helppi opened to 28,000 from the button and Jean-Noel Thorel called in the big blind. The flop came 
and Thorel checked. Helppi continued for 20,000 and Thorel called before checking again the 
on the turn.
Helppi now fired a second barrel worth 56,000 before facing the check-min-raise by Thorel to 112,000. Helppi folded and Thorel flashed the 
for a straight with a bright smile on the face.
