Hellmuth Gets Lucky

Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth

Phil Hellmuth raised to 28,000 and Michael Stroh shoved over the top for 42,000 more. Hellmuth made the call and they turned over their cards:

Hellmuth: {K-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Stroh: {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop was safe for Stroh but the {K-Clubs} on the turn left him drawing to an ace. The river was the {Q-Clubs} and Stroh was eliminated.
