Helpard Doubles Through Dickstein

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

A short-stacked Dave Helpard was all in for around 50,000 from under-the-gun against Mark Dickstein, who was in middle position and had Helpard covered.

Dave Helpard: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Mark Dickstein: {k-Spades}{k-}

The {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop was good for Dickstein, but a {a-Spades} turn vaulted Helpard into the lead with a pair of aces.

The {3-Hearts} failed to help Dickstein and he was forced to surrender a good portion of his stack to Helpard.
