Hellmuth Gets Frustrated, Folds
Level 22
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
A number of breaks have slowed the action.
Phil Hellmuth raised to 150,000 in the small blind, and Rainer Kempe called. Action was the same on a flop, and the hit the turn. Hellmuth fired 340,000 this time and was again called. A completed the board, and Hellmuth checked. Kempe bet 425,000 fairly quickly, causing Hellmuth to get out of his chair and pace around a bit in frustration. He said something to Kempe and shrugged at the heavens before sitting down and mucking.
