Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

After the player in the cutoff popped it to 300, it was folded to Phil Hellmuth in the big blind, who said, "I can't let you take my blind every time...raise!" He made it 600 more to go and was called.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

and both players checked. Hellmuth led out for 700 after the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

turned and got the call, and after the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

hit on the river Hellmuth bet 1,375 and was called again. His opponent turned over {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

for the runner-runner flush and Hellmuth mucked, then said, "He beat my overpair...guys are such idiots these days...it's unbelieveable..."
