Hellmuth Can't Find a Fold

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth

After pulling off a bluff with jack-high against Arthur Morris on the PokerGO livestream, Phil Hellmuth tangled with the same player in one of the biggest Day 1c feature table pots.

The hand began with Damien Gayer raising from an early position to 1,200 with A3, and then Morris called with 88. Hellmuth, in position against those two players, opted for a call with JJ, as did James Minghini, holding A3 on the button.

Michael Cervantes, in the big blind with K6, also came along for the ride to see a flop of 6104, not much of an improvement for any of the five players. Action checked to Hellmuth, and he bet 4,000 with an over pair, receiving a call only from Morris, who was drawing to a two-outer that would come on the 8 turn.

Morris would check his set, and Hellmuth would bet 8,000 this time before being check-raised to 22,000. The "Poker Brat" begrudgingly called.

When the K appeared on the turn, it gave Hellmuth an over card to his pair, but he could not find a fold facing a 35,000-chip bet and he lost approximately half his stack in the pot. Hellmuth was still steaming about the turn card five minutes after the hand concluded.

Lichtenberger Wins Without a Showdown

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action folded around to the blinds, where the player in the small blind raised to 1,500 and Andrew Lichtenberger called in the big blind.

Lichtenberger called an 800 bet from his opponent on the AAJ flop and a 3,500 bet from his opponent on the Q turn.

The small blind checked on the 6 river, prompting a 9,000 bet from Lichtenberger. His opponent folded after a bit of thought and Lichtenberger collected the pot without showing.

Graner Chips Up while Trakett Chips Down

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Jonathan Tackett raised to 1,200 from early position, Stephen Graner three-bet to 3,600 in middle position and the small blind cold called.

The action checked to Graner, who bet out 4,000 on the 3A4 flop. The small blind and Tackett made a quick fold.

Graner claimed this pot to propel him to nearly three starting stacks, while Tacket was left short.
