Hellmuth's Fuse Lit, But Correctly Folds
Eli Elezra opened with a raise and he was called by Iraj Parvizi, Phil Hellmuth on the button, Jonathan Depa in the small blind and Scott Bohlman in the big blind.
The flop was 
and action checked to Hellmuth who bet. Depa raised and everyone else folded. Hellmuth called.
The turn was the 
and Depa bet again. Hellmuth picked up his cards immediately and started muttering to himself.
"What are they doing to me," Hellmuth said. "They've been playing this shit all day and I've only raised on two flops."
"I will lay 1000 to 1 that he's folding," Elezra said, laughing.
Eventually, Hellmuth did fold, showing 
for the second nut low and a pair of kings. After the hand, Depa told Hellmuth that he did in fact have 
for the nut low and a straight, meaning that Hellmuth made the correct fold.
