Jon Turner was the bring in with the {2-Spades} and he completed. Next to act was Phil Hellmuth and he raised with the {4-Hearts} showing. Action folded around to Turner and the rest of his chips got into the middle.

Turner: {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}/{2-Spades}
Hellmuth: {5-Spades}{4-Spades}/{4-Hearts}

Turner's next three up cards came {Q-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} to give him kings up. Hellmuth's came {7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Spades}, giving him outs to a flush, straight, low, pretty much the world. He peaked at his seventh street card, determining it was either the {5-Clubs} or {4-Clubs}. He flashed it to Turner first who was dejected to see the {4-Clubs}, giving Hellmuth trips. Turner was not saved by his {9-Diamonds} on seventh street and is out in 18th place.
