Small Boost for Brown Against Hellmuth
Level 10
Stud Hi-Lo
Phil Hellmuth: Q♦Q♥ / 3♣8♠2♣J♣ folded on sixth street
Andrew Brown: KxKx / 9♦2♥6♦A♠
Phil Hellmuth was still somewhat steaming when he tangled in a heads-up pot with Andrew Brown, though he cracked a joke to table neighbour Benny Glaser. When facing a bet on sixth street by Brown, Hellmuth was annoyed and assumed his opponent had paired his ace to fold Q♦Q♥ in the hole face-up.
Brown shook his head and replied "no, pocket kings" as he mucked the cards pretty high towards Hellmuth before raking in the pot. One table over, Kristopher Tong was moved to balance the field as Cary Katz sat down in his former seat.
