Hellmuth Out - Kicked in Two Pair vs. Two Pair Stud Hand
Stud:
Hellmuth: (X) (X) / / (X)
Oppenheim: (X) (X) / / (X)
We picked up the action on fifth street, with Phil Hellmuth and David Oppenheim showing inverse boards. Hellmuth bet, and Oppenheim called. The Poker Brat bet again on sixth, and Oppenheim flatted again. Both checked the river, and brace yourself for an explosion on showdown. Oppenheim had for kings and nines with an ace. Hellmuth threw down the , meaning he had kings and nines as well but was outkicked. Don't see that too often, and you know how much Hellmuth loves it when he gets unlucky. He mucked his cards with some serious force and got out of his seat to get some added volume into his ranting.
Oppenheim is building nicely and on 330,000. Hellmuth looks less healthy with 95,000.
