Two Pair for Trickett

Level 21 : 300,000/600,000, 75,000 ante

Hand #54: Sam Trickett started the hand with the button, and the action folded to him. He raised to 1.4 million, Guy Laliberté three-bet from the big blind, Trickett released, and Laliberté tabled {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}.

Hand #55: David Einhorn had the button. The action folded to Sam Trickett, who raised to 1.2 million from the cutoff. Phil Hellmuth defended his big blind, and the flop fell {5-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Spades}. Hellmuth checked, and Trickett fired 1.2 million. Hellmuth called.

The {7-Hearts} turned, Hellmuth checked again, and Trickett reached for chips, tossing out 1.4 million. Hellmuth called.

The {k-Hearts} completed the board, and both players quickly checked. Hellmuth tabled {a-Spades}{10-Spades} for ace-high, and Trickett showed {8-Spades}{7-Clubs} for two pair, winning the pot.
