This week’s hand took place in Event #7: $800 NLH Knockout Deepstack with 15 players remaining in Level 35 (30,000/60,000/7,500).

Rafael "sosana" Perry: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Robert "bustinballs" Kuhn: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Kuhn was behind and nothing changed after the {k-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop.

The {j-Clubs} turn gave both players a broadway draw but the {3-Hearts} paired the board on the river ending Kuhn's tournament.

Hellmuth Eliminates Harder

Phil Hellmuth

With the blinds at 2,500/5,000/625, Christian "0V0X0" Harder moved all in for 24,810 from the cutoff and 15-time bracelet winner Phil "Lumestackin" Hellmuth three-bet jammed over the top from the button. Both blinds folded and Harder discovered the bad news.

Christian "0V0X0" Harder: {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Phil "Lumestackin" Hellmuth: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop actually paired Harder's kicker to give him the lead, but it was only temporary as the {k-Clubs} rolled off on the turn to pair the "Poker Brat."

The {a-Hearts} river gave both players two pair, but of course Hellmuth's aces and kings was best.
