Helppi and Grospellier Bust
Level 16
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Juha Helppi and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier have both been eliminated. Grospellier went out first, and he fell to the hands of Barry Greenstein, who climbed to 135,000 in chips. Helppi was busted by Phil Hellmuth, who made queens and jacks to defeat Helppi's pair of fives. Hellmuth moved to 215,000 in chips.
Also of note was that Nikolay Losev just lost a pot to Richard Ashby. Ashby had two kings on his board, and another one came from his down cards to scoop the pot with trips.
