Fast Trips Up Helou in Blind Battle

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

In a classic blind vs. blind battle, Dietrich Fast raised 400 from the small blind, and Mark Helou called in the big blind.

The flop came down 22Q, and Fast continued with a small bet of 300, which Helou called.

On the 6 turn, Fast kept the pressure on with a larger bet of 1,500, and Helou stuck around with another call.

When the K hit the river, Fast went big, firing 6,500. Helou called quickly, but Fast revealed 52 for trips, while Helou's AxKx two pair wasn’t enough. Fast scooped a solid pot, leaving Helou shaking his head in frustration.
