Sheirbon Ships a Double

Under the gun, Alex Jacob made it 25,000 to play, and Terry Fleischer made the call in the hijack seat. From the big blind, Brent Sheirbon reraised all in for 148,000. Next door in the big blind, Jason Helder wasn't going anywhere either. He asked for a count on Fleischer before moving all in himself. Jacob and Fleischer had enough of the raising and ducked out of the way.

Showdown
Sheirbon: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}
Helder: {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}

The board held Shierbon as it came {3-Hearts} {5-Spades} {6-Hearts} {K-Spades} {2-Spades}. With his pair of kings, Sheirbon has earned a big double up and then some. He's up to 365,000 now, dropping Helder down to 705,000.
