Hellmuth Continues to Rise

Omaha 8

When we arrived at Table 447, Phil Hellmuth, Brian Hastings and David Bakes Baker were all taking to a {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop in a raised pot. Hastings and Baker checked and Hellmuth flicked out a bet. Only Hastings called as a {8-Clubs} hit the turn. Again Hastings check-called a bet from Hellmuth, the same as he did on the {2-Spades} river.

When Hellmuth tabled {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} at showdown, his trip deuces and nut-low was strong enough to scoop up the pot.

Israelashvili Doubles With Quads

Limit Hold'em

When we reached Table 448, the flop read {4-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts}, and Roland Israelashvili had just made it four bets. It was on Michael Chow, who had two bets in front of him. He mucked, and Richard Chiovari, who had three bets in front of him, called.

The turn was another eight - the {8-Hearts} - and Israelashvili led out. Chiovari called. The {j-Spades} completed the board, and Israelashvili moved all in for 11,000, which is less than a big bet. Chiovari quickly called, and Israelashvili tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for quad eights.

Chiovari showed two black kings, and Israelashvili raked in the pot.

Joe Tehan opened to 8,000 and David Bakes Baker made it 12,000 behind him. Phil Hellmuth took a good long time to fold on the button, the blinds released and Tehan called.

The flop came {7-Spades} {3-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}, Tehan checked, Baker bet and Tehan check-raised. Baker called to see the {4-Diamonds} turn. Tehan bet and Baker folded.

Hastings Taking Brown's Chips

Stud 8

When we arrived at Table 477, Brian Hastings and Andrew Brown were deeply involved in hand of Stud 8. It was sixth street when we were at the table and there was already a big pot brewing.

Brown: {x-}{x-} / {k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Hastings: {x-}{x-} / {2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{a-Hearts}

Brown fired out a bet here and Hastings quickly raised it up. This sent Brown deep into the tank. Eventually he said, "nice hand," and decided to fold.

"Had a pretty sick re-draw too," said Hastings. "I had four hearts and a gutshot as well."

Eskandani led again on sixth, only Brunson called, and on seventh, Eskandani checked. Brunson tossed out a bet, and Eskandani quickly called.
