"Spooky F***ing Hand"

2-7 Triple Draw

With action caught on the second draw, Phil Hellmuth took one, his left-hand neighbor patted and Brian Yoon changed two. Yoon and Hellmuth both called a bet and they changed one apiece on the final draw.

Hellmuth checked, and Yoon raised a bet from his opponent.

"What a spooky f***ing hand," Hellmuth grumbled and then he threw his cards away, accidentally exposing {7-}{4-}{2-}. The third player three-bet and Yoon quickly called only to see his opponent show {7-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} for the nuts.

Hellmuth stormed from his chair to release some accumulated energy and then he returned back to his 12,500.
