Level 33 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Hand #124: Jason Helder opened to 400,000 from under the gun and Chris Drake made it 1.1 million to go from the button. Action came back to Helder and he called to see a flop.

The dealer fanned {7-Spades}{A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and Helder check-called a continuation of 1.2 million. The {4-Diamonds} hit the turn and both players checked, allowing the {8-Diamonds} to finish the board. There were two more checks and Helder tabled a winning {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for a pair of kings.

Hand #125: Drake made it 400,000 from under the gun only to have Travis Rice three-bet the action to 1.2 million from the small blind. Action folded back to Drake who folded as well.

Hand #126: Rice limped his button, action folded to Drake, and he raised out of the big blind. Rice let his hand go.

Hand #127: Helder opened to 400,000 and took down the blinds and antes.

Hand #128: Drake made it 400,000 from the button and Rice called from the big blind. The flop came down {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Rice checked. Drake fired 400,000 and Rice moved out a call.

Fourth street was the {5-Hearts} and on this street Rice check-called for one million. The {5-Clubs} on the river put two pair on the board. Rice checked, Drake shipped all in, and Rice folded.
