Drinan Decides to Call Down Hellmuth
Razz
Phil Hellmuth: XxXx/2x6x4x5x/Xx
Connor Drinan: XxXx/2x2xAx8x/Xx
After Connor Drinan completed, he got a call from Phil Hellmuth. Despite pairing his door card, Drinan called a bet from Hellmuth to see fifth street.
Hellmuth continued to improve, now showing three babies on fifth, but after another Hellmuth bet, Drinan said "for most people I'd fold, but you, I'm calling down."
Drinan then spiked in his call and sixth street was dealt. While Drinan did improve with an eight, Hellmuth now showed four to a six and bet again.
Drinan thought audibly about how Hellmuth could have a three and then called again.
Hellmuth then bet seventh street blind, which led Drinan to think some more then say, "I've never seen you blind bet with nothing, so I just fold."
Hellmuth quickly shoved his cards to the muck after Drinan's and dragged the healthy pot.
