Hellmuth raised on the button, Eddie Blumenthal called from the small blind, and Ari Engel made it three-bets from the big blind. Both Hellmuth and Blumenthal called.

The flop came {8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and Blumenthal checked. Engel bet and Hellmuth called all in. Blumenthal also called.

Both players checked on the {9-Hearts} turn and Blumenthal checked again on the {6-Clubs} river — prompting a bet from Engel. Blumenthal called.

Phil Hellmuth: {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Eddie Blumenthal: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Ari Engel: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

Engel and Blumenthal split the pot and eliminated Hellmuth from contention.

Can Hellmuth Secure a 16th Bracelet?
Can Hellmuth Secure a 16th Bracelet?

After three long days of batting on the green felt, today a new Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or Better champion will be crowned. The winner will take home $317,076 in addition to a World Series of Poker gold bracelet.

Of the 134 players who entered Event #9: $10,000 Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or Better Championship, just five remain. Leading the way is Ari Engel, who put on an impressive display last night during the unofficial final table by knocking out multiple players and accumulating more than double the number of chips of his closest competitor.

Phil Hellmuth will enter Day 4 as the short stack, but will surely be aiming to add to his poker legacy by securing a record-setting 16th career WSOP gold bracelet.
