Dylan Linde

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Prior to the second draw, Phil Hellmuth was already all-in for 50,000 and Dylan Linde looked him up with the slightly superior stack. Hellmuth patted while Linde took one. The same drawing action repeated on the last draw and Hellmuth tabled a {8-}{7-}{5-}{3-}{2-}. Linde had the {7-}{5-}{4-}{2-} but bricked with a {j-} as his final card.

Linde was left short and busted shortly after, Paul Volpe followed to the rail moments later from a different table.

2-7 PLO Triple Draw

The action was picked up with Matt Glantz all-in versus Scott Seiver and both players stood pat on the final draw.

It was the {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades} of Glantz's that took it down and secured his double up, while Seiver mucked before the dealer could show his hand with the all-in player, but he stated that he had an eight-seven low.

No Limit Hold'em

The action was discovered on a board of {j-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Scott Seiver was deep in the tank versus the bet of Jack Rice.

After much deliberation, Seiver found the call button and he was correct as his {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds} bested the {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} of Rice's, and Seiver was awarded the pot.

Hellmuth Gets Short; Then Gets a Shove Through

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

On the river of a board {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, Joao Vieira piled in a stack of T-5,000 chips and that sent Phil Hellmuth in the tank.

He folded with the words "you still have time to give it to me later. I got greedy, I didn't move in before the flop."

That's actually what he did the next hand when Vieira raised to 4,500. Hellmuth jammed for 30,500 and got through with it.
