See You in Hellman, Demirdjian

Erik Hellman is the newest player to see his stack soar up to two million in chips. Plenty of those chips came when Hellman eliminated Mark Demirdjian late here on Day 4 of the 2012 World Series of Poker.

Demirdjian had his stack all in preflop holding {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} and was looking good to double up against Hellman's {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. However, the {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Spades} board had other ideas, sending the pot to Hellman and Demirdjian to the rail.
