Two players limped in and Phil Hellmuth raised to 700, leaving himself only 200 behind. The small blind flat-called the 700, the big blind moved all in for 2,200, the limpers folded, Hellmuth called all in and the small blind folded. Hellmuth turned up {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

while the big blind tabled {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

. The board ran out {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{2-Hearts}

{4-Spades}

and Hellmuth tripled up to 2,900.

Just as soon as he built his stack back up, he lost it all. Hellmuth got it all in two hands later with {A-?}

{A-?}

{K-?}

and was called by an opponent with pocket jacks. The jacks held and Hellmuth hit the rail in relative silence.
