"Mixed Game Specialist" Depaulo Eliminates Defending Champ Hellmuth
Level 12
: 1,000/2,500, 3,500 ante
With a healthy stack on Day 2, popular vlogger and WSOP bracelet holder Ryan Depaulo, known more for his play in No-Limit Hold 'em tweeted this recently...
Well, he can now add busting the defending champion of this event and 16-time WSOP bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth to his growing mixed game resume.
Hellmuth raised in middle position and Depaulo moved all in from the button, slightly covering Hellmuth's roughly 90,000 chip stack.
Both players stood pat and the hands were revealed.
Phil Hellmuth: 
Ryan Depaulo: 
The win vaults Depaulo into the upper echelon of chip stacks in the room and likely calls for a "PARKOUR!" during the upcoming break.
