Helppi Doubles With Jacks
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
There were already around 60,000 chips in the middle on a flop of 2♥4♠2♠ when Vladimir Korzinin bet 21,000. Juha Helppi then shoved for 51,000, and Korzinin reluctantly called.
Juha Helppi: J♠J♣ 
Vladimir Korzinin: Ax10x
Korzinin needed to find some help but neither the 8♥ turn nor 5♦ river offered any improvement, which meant Helppi doubled up.
