Eric Froehlich Went Ace Against Ace With Phil Hellmuth Here on Day 1
Eric Froehlich Went Ace Against Ace With Phil Hellmuth Here on Day 1

We caught the tail end of a clash between Phil Hellmuth and Eric Froehlich, with the "Poker Brat" coming up on the short end of the stick.

Neither player made a pair by the river, but when "E-Fro" rolled over the {A-}{Q-} his kicker gave him the advantage over Hellmuth's {A-}{10-}.

Hellmuth winced noticeably when he saw the bad news, but he quickly regained his composure to knock the table and offer his fellow pro a "nice hand."
