Hand 23: Hellmuth Cripples Himself
A four-way flop came .
Hellmuth bet 7,000 and Helppi and Scharf both called.
Turn:
Hellmuth fired again, 27,000 this time. Helppi thought for a while before calling with his flush draw and second pair, but Scharf with two pair - the best hand by some way - laid it down.
River:
With 91,000 in the pot and a stack of 29,000, Hellmuth's third bullet was going to price in any reasonable hand to call. He actually bet 24,000.
Helppi tanked for a couple of minutes before Hellmuth opened his mouth. "Do you have queen-jack of diamonds?" he asked, and Helppi replied, "If I had that, I'd have called you already."
It took him just a few seconds longer to actually make the call.
"You got it," said Hellmuth in disgust.
"If you hadn't said anything I might have laid it down."
Hellmuth has 5,000 remaining.
