Hellmuth Finally Makes His Exit

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

Hellmuth won one pot but had fallen back to just 1,400 when he moved all in and got a call from Robert Mizrachi in the small blind. Mizrachi showed, {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Hellmuth had {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{6-Spades} The board ran out {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Mizrachi took three quarters of the pot with the flush and shared {a-}{6-} low.

The very next hand, an under the gun player raised to 1,500 and Hellmuth put his last 900 in and every one else folded. Hellmuth had {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and the UTG player had {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} the board ran out {7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and that was all she wrote for Hellmuth. No blowup for Phil though, he wished everyone luck and calmly walked out (hell has frozen over).
