Raising Hellmuth

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Shamus

A player in middle position raised to 3,300, and Phil Hellmuth reraised all in behind him. Nikolay Evdakov then pushed all in himself from the small blind (Hellmuth had him covered), and the original raiser -- saying later he had pocket jacks -- folded.

Evdakov turned over {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

while Hellmuth showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Hearts}

. "Here we go again, Jeff!" Hellmuth called across the way to Jeff Madsen.

What a flop for Hellmuth -- {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Evdakov was already sunk, but for the sake of completeness, we'll report the turn was the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and the river the {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

. Evdakov is out, and Hellmuth now up to 58,000.

"Phil, can I get a little bit of that?" said Madsen.
