Pot-Limit Omaha

Juha Helppi opened to 500,000 from the cutoff, before Lou Garza potted to 1,800,000 on the button. Helppi made the call, and the two went off to a flop of 4♠2♦10♠. Helppi potted and Garza called all in.

Lou Garza: Q♥Q♦7♦6♥ All in
Juha Helppi: Q♣9♣8♦4♦

Helppi had plenty of outs to crack queens, and picked up so many more on the J♦ turn. The 8♥ was one of them, as he binked the nuts to send the reigning champ home.
