Hand #138: Jason Helder made it 400,000 from the button and Travis Rice folded his big blind.

Hand #139 Rice completed from the button and Helder responding by shipping all in over the top. Rice folded.

Hand #140: Helder made it 400,000 from the button and Rice moved all in for roughly five million in chips. Helder called and the hands were turned over.

Helder: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Rice: {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Helder had the lead and was five cards away from being crowned the champion. The flop came down {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}, paring Helder's nine and giving him a tight grip on the hand.

"Five of hearts for a sweat!" chimed in third-place finisher Kevin Eyster from the rail.

The turn was in fact the {2-Diamonds}, sealing the deal for Helder. The {Q-Spades} finished the board and Rice officially became the runner up for $340,403.
