Hand 45

Tony G limped on the button with {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, Hellmuth completed with {3-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Devilfish checked {K-Hearts}{3-Spades}.

Flop: {2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Tony G bet 10,000 and Hellmuth called.

Turn: {3-Hearts}
Hellmuth checked his two pair and Tony G checked behind.

River: {7-Hearts}
With Hellmuth's two pair counterfeited he just checked the river but still took the pot.

Hand 43: Tony G Survives

Devilfish raised to 14,000 with {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} and Tony G moved all in for 58,000 with {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Devilfish called.

Flop: {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Devilfish missed with his overcards, but the percentages remained exactly the same after he picked up a flush draw.

Turn: {J-Spades}
This card actually improves Devilfish's hand slighly. The onscreen graphics now say it's exactly 50/50.

River: {A-Diamonds}
With 24 outs to hit, Devilfish somehow misses everything and Tony G doubles up.

Devilfish is annoyed that he stil can't win a race, but Roland de Wolfe is the really unlucky one. After three all-in confrontations this heat, nobody has still gone broke to let him clinch a final-table place.

Level: 3

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Ante: 0

Hand 42

Devilfish raised to 12,000 with {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. As Roland de Wolfe's big blind is as good as dead money, he only needed to get through one player and the small blind to take the pot.

Hand 39

Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth
Hellmuth raises to 10,000 with {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Devilfish calls in the big blind with {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

Flop is {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Hellmuth checks. Devilfish moves all in and Hellmuth folds.

Jesse May: "Hellmuth is the equivalent of a human boiler right now. He's steaming pretty bad."

Hand 38

Devilfish limped in with {J-Spades}{8-Spades} and Tony G completed with {A-Diamonds}{3-Spades} but Hellmuth raised to 24,000 from the big blind holding {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

Devilfish made the call and Tony G folded.

Flop: {2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Devilfish moved all in and Hellmuth folded.

While Hellmuth was thinking, Devilfish pulled the top of his ear and made a noise like a kettle, showing Hellmuth how to "let a little steam out."

Hand 37

Hellmuth raises with {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} to 12,000 and Juha Helppi moves all in with {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for 46,000 more.

"I think I got to take my swing to take you out Juha."

Hellmuth calls.

Big sweat for Helppi here.

Board: {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades}.

Ace high is good and the 2007 champion stays is alive.

This is Roland de Wolfe's worst nightmare come true so far.
