Hellmuth Gets It In Far Behind

Level 17 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Alex Aleksandrovski raised to 40,000 and Ben Lamb called. Phil Hellmuth then raised to 180,000, Aleksandrovski potted, Lamb folded, and Hellmuth called all in for 285,000.

Phil Hellmuth: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Spades}
Alex Aleksandrovski: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

"Nice hand, buddy. I'm in bad shape," Hellmuth said after seeing Aleksandrovski's aces. Lamb expressed surprise at Hellmuth's hand.

"I was going for it," Hellmuth replied.

The {3-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop improved Hellmuth to trip eights, and he stayed ahead on the {4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} turn and river.

"I had no idea you could get it in that bad in PLO," tablemate Chance Kornuth said after the hand.
