The action was picked up on sixth street with Hellmuth all-in and Saecho having tossed out another bet in his side pot against Rodriguez. Eventually, Rodriguez bowed out and it was Saechao and Hellmuth's heads-up to seventh street with Hellmuth all-in and at risk.
When the cards were flipped over Hellmuth was in trouble as Saechao had completed a flush on fifth street. The meaningless last card was dealt face down to each player, who then flipped it face up and Hewllmuth was eliminated from the tournament.
