Big Slick Doesn't Do the Trick for Hellmuth
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Phil Hellmuth opened for 2,000 from middle position only to have Nam Le three-bet all in for 15,300 from the cutoff. The button and both blinds folded, and then Hellmuth made a quick call.
Hellmuth: 
Le: 
Hellmuth was drawing to suited overs, but he came up empty on the 
flop. The 
turn was a good card for Hellmuth as it gave him both a flush and Broadway draw, but he bricked the river when the 
peeled off. Ship the double to Le.
