Phil Hellmuth opened for 50,000 under the gun and was met with an all-in three-bet to 153,000 from Nicolas Cardyn on the button. Both blinds folded, Hellmuth asked for a count, and then he committed the chips to put Cardyn at risk.
Showdown
Cardyn:
Hellmuth:
Hellmuth had Cardyn crushed, and he would put an end to the Frenchman's Main Event run in 11th place after the board ran out . The remaining ten players will now play two five-handed tables until we get down to nine, at which point they'll combine and play the unofficial final table.
