Action Flop for Hellmuth and Baldwin
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
In a flurry of chips hitting the felt, the exact action was missed as PokerNews caught up with the table. Phil Hellmuth in the hijack found himself all in for his remaining 127,000 on a flop that read A♦7♠6♦. Eric Baldwin in the big blind had called and had Hellmuth at risk.
Eric Baldwin: 7♥6♣
Phil Hellmuth: 9♦8♦
Hellmuth was behind the two pair of Balwin but had a monster draw for insurance. The turn and river came the 4♠ and 10♣ respectively; Hellmuth rivered a straight to find the full double up.
