We missed the elimination of Phil Hellmuth, but we learned after the fact that he got his short stack all in preflop against Sam Higgs.

Hellmuth: {a-}{q-}{j-}{9-}
Higgs: {k-}{k-}{8-}{7-}

The board ran out clean, and Hellmuth is now 0-5 at the 2014 WSOP APAC.

"Usually I'm about a 4-1 favorite when I play pots in Australia. Not that time," Hellmuth said before departing.
