White Doubles Through Hellmuth

Pat White made it 500 to go preflop and Phil Hellmuth made the call. The flop came {8-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {9-Hearts} and White led out for 4,500. Phil moved all-in and was quickly called by White who held pocket queens to Phil's A-9. The turn came another nine, which was more than welcomed by Phil, but the {Q-Diamonds} on the river boated White. Hellmuth now sits at 36,000 while White increased his stack to over 50,000.
