Phil Hellmuth Came to Play Poker

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Jason Mercier raised to 17,000 from under the gun, Phil Galfond three-bet to 48,000 from the hijack, Phil Hellmuth called from the big blind, and Mercier called.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Hellmuth led for 40,000. Mercier folded, Galfond raised to 90,000 and Hellmuth called.

The turn was the {J-Hearts} and Hellmuth bet 50,000. Galfond mulled it over for about 30 seconds before he folded.

"I came to play poker, boys!" yelled an excited Hellmuth, as he showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, "but it was probably the best hand anyway,"

"It was," said Galfond.
