Hellmuth Enters and Wins
Omaha-8
Phil Hellmuth has just taken his seat in the tournament for his first entry of the day. In the first pot that he was seen playing, Hellmuth raised it up from early position and was called by Matt Woodward in the big blind. The flop fell 
and Woodward checked to Hellmuth who continued with a bet. Woodward check-raised and Hellmuth just called.
The 
landed on the turn and Woodward slid in another bet. It was Hellmuth's turn to raise and Woodward made the call. The river brought the 
and Woodward checked. Hellmuth quickly threw in another bet and Woodward tossed his cards to the muck.
Hellmuth and Woodward should be expected to clash a few more times while they are seated at the same table, and Mr. Positivity needs to be at the top of his game if he is going to battle with one of the best in the business.
