Paging Sammy Chauhan

Stop the presses. Phil Hellmuth is having a bad day. He raised, and another player at his table reraised. Then one of the blinds called, and Hellmuth tossed out the extra chips, growling, "Thank you for three-betting." The flop came {q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, and the blind checked. Hellmuth bet, and both players called. Same story after the {k-Spades} on the turn. The river was the {7-Diamonds}, and all three checked. Hellmuth tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, good for the low half the pot against the blinds' {10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. The other player mucked, and Hellmuth said, "Well, one of us was gonna get unlucky because he calls every three-bet."

A few hands later, Hellmuth got involved with the "serial caller" again. He just mucked when his opponent showed down a straight on a board with no low. He then put on his sunglasses and sat back in his chair, telling himself, "Shut up, Phil."
