Helpard Bursts the Bubble

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

A player moved all in from under the gun and was called by Dave Helpard in middle position.

Under The Gun Player: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Dave Helpard: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

It was a classic race on the pure bubble with the under the gun player needing to win to avoid becoming the bubble boy. The {2-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Spades} flop, while keeping the at risk player ahead, did give Helpard a flush draw. The {5-Diamonds} turn changed nothing but the {4-Spades} river improved Helpard to a flush to eliminate the under the gun player and burst the bubble.
