Hillman Makes Decent Start
Louis Hillman took fifth place in this event last year for a career best score of $81,298. He will be looking to improve on that this year after a decent start to play during Level 1.
A player opened from early position before being three-bet by Juha Helppi one seat over. Hillman called in the big blind as did the original raiser.
Action checked to Helppi on the 5♣8♦3♠ flop and he continued. Neither of his opponents were prepared to relinquish their hands just yet, keeping affairs three-handed heading to the turn.
The turn came 6♠. Once again Hillman and the early position player checked and Helppi bet. Two quick calls followed.
No more chips went into the pot after the 5♥ river completed the board. Hillman tabled J♣J♥, prompting his opponents to muck their holdings.
