Onto the Next One for Hellmuth

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

We missed the elimination of Phil Hellmuth, but you know him, he has to tell somebody about it. Fortunately he chose us.

Hellmuth stopped by the desk to inform us that he and another player each got 1,750 in preflop and saw a flop of {k-}{4-}{5-}. Hellmuth shoved the rest of his stack and his opponent snap-called with {k-}{j-}{10-}{8-} for just a pair of kings, which were behind the {a-}{a-}{5-}{6-} aces of Hellmuth.

The 13-time bracelet winner got it in good, but he lost the lead when a {J-} on the turn gave his opponent two pair. A {8-} on the river failed to help Hellmuth, and he is now 0-3 at the 2013 WSOP APAC.

"I'm gonna win the next one," Hellmuth said with confidence before extolling his PLO tournament game.
