Lykov Sends the Poker Brat on Tilt
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
The flop read 
and Phil Hellmuth led out for 2,000 into a pot of around 4,500. Maxim Lykoc called and the 
landed on the turn. Both players checked to the 
on the river.
Hellmuth fired another bet of 3,900 and Lykov raised to 11,000. Hellmuth made the call and Lykov turned over 
for a full house on the river. Hellmuth sat and played with his cards, flashing the 
while doing so, and then came the banter.
"It's not your fault," Hellmuth chirped to a smiling Lykov. "I make everyone look bad, just ask Jeff who has watched me for 20 years."
Jeff Lisandro perked up and responded, "If it wasn't for the river Phil, you would have 28 bracelets."
