Level 40 : Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante

Michael Helander in the small blind shoved all in for 14,000,000, and Carlos Martinez in the big blind called.

Michael Helander: 8♥7♥ All in
Carlos Martinez: A♣4♣

The dealer fanned out 9♥K♠A♦, strengthening Martinez's lead with a pair of aces, but the 5♥ turn gave Helander more outs with straight and flush draws. The river 6♣ completed Helander's straight, resulting in his double-up.
