No-Limit Hold'em
Manig Loeser raised to 700 from middle position and the button three-bet to 1,900. Phil Hellmuth was in the small blind with 1,350 and he went into the tank.

"I had it. I had the ace-six!" quipped Hellmuth.
"I had four big blinds. I should just stick it in there but I'm allergic to getting my money in bad!" Hellmuth added.
