Level 11
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Phil Hellmuth and the player across the table from him tangled up in a preflop raising war. It looked like Hellmuth had opened, and the short-stacked player three-bet all in for an additional 9,200. When it came back to The Brat, he tanked for a while before splashing the call into the pot.
At showdown, the shorty had Hellmuth's hand, 
, and he was racing for his tournament life against the 
of The Brat.
The 
flop missed Hellmuth, but the 
turn certainly didn't. The at-risk player couldn't find his two-outer on the 
river, and Hellmuth has claimed another victim to move to about 47,000.
