Foxen Dispatches Hellmuth in Dramatic Fashion

Level 21
Alex Foxen and Phil Hellmuth
Alex Foxen and Phil Hellmuth

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Alex Foxen opened the button to 40,000 before Hellmuth jammed for 399,000 from the small blind. Foxen took little time before he flicked in the call.

Hellmuth stood pat while Foxen took one, and the cards hit their backs.

Phil Hellmuth: 10x9x8x6x4x All in
Alex Foxen: 7x6x5x2x

Foxen peeled an 8x on the draw to make an eight-seven to eliminate Hellmuth in 21st place.

The mostly-empty Horseshoe Ballroom echoed with screams of Hellmuth's "Fuck!" as he stormed out of the tournament area.

Hellmuth was in disbelief at Foxen's call as he elaborated, "If I always have a pat hand you're always 30%."

"If you're only shoving when you're pat there, that's pretty bad," replied Foxen.

Foxen and his tablemates defended the call as Hellmuth worked his way towards the payout desk.

Hellmuth was not quite done with his rant as he yelled from across the room, "Motherfucker...Nice call Alex."

Brandt Draws Best

Level 21

Chris Klodnicki raised from middle position and Toby Boas called on the button. Then Lawrence Brandt three-bet all in for 102,000. Klodnicki called, and Boas made the fold.

Both players drew one card on the first draw.

Brandt stood pat on the second draw and Klodnicki drew one again.

On the third draw Boas again stood pat and Klodnicki drew one again and mucked a nine face up.

Lawrence Brandt: 8x7x6x3x2x
Chris Klodnicki: 7x5x4x2x

Klodnicki was correct to muck his nine, but on his final draw he again drew 9x and Brandt secured the double up with his eight-seven.

Rawtani Sends Hellmuth Into A Tizzy

Level 21

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was picked up on the river in a pot between Phil Hellmuth and Nitesh Rawtani.

The board read 5778K, and Rawtani moved all in on the river for 360,000 effective, which had Hellmuth standing out of his seat.

"I've been folding for three hours," Hellmuth muttered as he thought about his decision. After some thought, he tossed his hand into the muck, and Rawtani was awarded the pot.

Rawtani flashed A9, and Hellmuth clapped his hands as he stood out of his chair and stormed away from the table.

"He was just trying to give me the chips," Hellmuth loudly exclaimed as he sat back in his chair.

Rawtani Flops a Set

Level 21

Sebastian Pauli raised from the button and Nitesh Rawtani three-bet the pot. Pauli made the call leaving 90,000 chips behind.

Once Paulie called, Rawtani bet the pot prior to the flop coming out saying "There's too much in the middle". Once the flop came A29 Pauli made the call and said "I hope you don't have aces"

Sebastian Pauli: AKJ104 All in
Nitesh Rawtani: AA1062

Pauli fears came true when Rawtani did flop a set of aces, and when the board ran out 4 on the turn and 5 on the river, Pauli was eliminated from the tournament.

"The Last Words Said By a Man Who Doubled His Opponent"

Level 21

Big O

Nitesh Rawtani raised to 56,000 from the cutoff and action folded around to Sebastian Pauli in the big blind who called.

The flop rolled out 2108 and Pauli checked over to Rawtani who moved all in for 88,000.

"I think I have a bit too much to fold," said Pauli.

"Those are the last words said by a man who doubled up his opponent," Rawtani responded.

Nitesh Rawtani: AJ873 All in
Sebastian Pauli: K6543

The runout of 96 left Rawtani with the nut-low and a jack-high straight to fulfill the words he said and double through Pauli.
