Hellmuth Takes a Hit
Shortly after retaking his seat following the recent break, Phil Hellmuth raised to 16,000 and his opponent on the button reraised all-in for 62,500. Hellmuth quickly made the call and flipped up , but the Poker Brat began whining just a bit when he saw his opponent's .
"Come on! Really?!" Hellmuth blurted before closing with "I just knew I was gonna bust this guy, he kept moving in on me and then he wakes up with queens!"
The final board ran out and Hellmuth's jacks were second best. He shipped about one-fourth of his chips to the opponent, all the while lamenting his opponent's good fortune.
