War on the Felt This Time

MarcC

Phil Hellmuth's war of words with Alex Keating has just spilled over in to a battle of the cards with one of them eliminated in the process.

Hellmuth raised from UTG and Keating three-bet from late position before the call was made to see a {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

flop. Hellmuth bet, was raised before he reraised back and was called. The {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

turn saw the rest of the chips go in and both players turn over monsters:

Hellmuth -- {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{10-Spades}

for a set.
Keating -- {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

for top pair and nut flush draw.

It all came down to the river..... {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

!!!

Boom for Keating as he takes the lot and eliminates his foe in the mean time and collects a 300,000 stack as well.
