Mahmood Triples Up
Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth raised from middle position to an amount that covered Ayaz Mahmood's stack. When action folded to Mahmood on the button he went all in for 15,000 and was called by both the under the gun player and Hellmuth.
The flop came out A♣8♣J♥ and after Hellmuth bet 10,000, the under-the-gun player quickly folded and surrendered the side pot to Hellmuth. "I think you got me" Hellmuth said to Mahmood.
Ayaz Mahmood: A♦Q♠
Phil Hellmuth:2♥2♦
The board ran out clean for Mahmood with 8♦9♥ and he was able to triple up.
