Hands #93-94: Helder Takes Big One From Eyster

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Hand #93: Kevin Eyster opened to 320,000 from under the gun only to have Travis Rice three-bet to 850,000 from the small blind. Action folded back to Eyster who folded as well.

Hand #94: Jason Helder raised to 320,000 from the cutoff and Eyster called from the big blind. The flop brought {3-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{6-Spades} to the felt and Eyster check-called a continuation bet of 300,000.

Fourth street was the {9-Hearts} and Eyster checked for a second time. Helder reached for chips and pushed 725,000 past the betting line. Eyster called again and the {9-Spades} finished the board. Eyster checked, Helder bet 1.8 million, and Eyster called.

Helder showed {K-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for kings and nines with a jack. Eyster mucked his cards and Helder was pushed a pot that brought his stack to 16.9 million.
