Smith Doubles Through Hellmuth
Level 11
Pot-Limit Omaha
Phil Hellmuth raised to 20,000 on the button and Dan Smith three-bet to 70,000 out of the small blind. Andrew Brown sigh-folded with a short stack behind and witnessed how Hellmuth and Smith got it in with the latter at risk.
Dan Smith: K♠Q♠10♦7♦
Phil Hellmuth: A♥J♥3♠2♣
The 6♣6♥6♦ flop let Brown burst out in agony as he mentioned to have folded a six. Smith was in need of luck and got there with the K♦ turn and 9♦ river as he improved to a flush.
