Limit Hold'em

Phil Hellmuth was down to his last 25,000 when Cary Katz opened from under the gun. Hellmuth stuck his last chips in from the big blind, and Katz wasn't folding.

Hellmuth: {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Katz: {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Hellmuth took an even bigger lead after the {9-Clubs}{9-}{6-Clubs} flop, slashing some of Katz's outs. A {Q-} on the turn gave Katz an inside straight draw, and an {8-} on the river completed it. "The Poker Brat" calmly said his goodbyes and walked out of the tournament area.
