Carroll Calls Hellmuth With Third Pair

"Guys that call with third pair against me don't do too well..."

That was one of the lines thrown by Phil Hellmuth following a recent hand against James Carroll.

Carroll had raised under the gun to 2,600 with Hellmuth making the call in the big blind. The flop fell {J-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{K-Hearts} and Hellmuth checked to Carroll who bet 3,500. Hellmuth clicked it back to 7,100 and Carroll made the call.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and Hellmuth fired 13,000. Carroll made the call as the river {A-Diamonds} slowed both players as they checked it down.

Carroll showed {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the best hand as Hellmuth mucked in disgust.

"I was calling the river too!" exclaimed Carroll.

"Well you're just gonna give me all your chips then too! You better hope this table breaks coz I'm gonna bust you!" replied Hellmuth angrily.

Hellmuth is down to 50,000 with Carroll now sitting with 110,000.
