Helder Sliding Backwards

[user66118]

On the next hand at Jason Helder's table, he was once again involved in some double-up action. It started when a player in middle position open-shoved all in for 92,000. Helder was on the button, and he made the call, aiming for a knockout with his {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

. His opponent though was in good shape for the double with {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{8-Spades}

.

The board smiled on his aspirations of doubling up as it came {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. The set of eights is good, and Helder has taken another step back to 615,000.
