Al Helfon Doubles Through Chris Mills
Oct 23, '15
There was around 18,000 already in the pot when four players saw a flop of 10
98
. The player in the small blind bet 4,000, the under-the-gun player folded, and Chris Mills raised to 15,000 in middle position.
Action moved to the player in the hijack, but Al Helfon, who was on the button, mistakenly thought the hijack folded and announced he was all in for 68,850. With Helfon’s verbal action binding, the player in the hijack folded and Helfon moved all in. The small blind folded and Mills called, having Helfon covered.
Mills flopped a straight with J
7, but Helfon had a bigger straight with QJ
. The turn brought the A and the river the 7 and Helfon scooped the massive pot.
Al Helfon – 165,000
Chris Mills – 17,000
