Badugi
Phil Hellmuth raised from the cutoff, Allan Le three-bet from the small blind, and Hellmuth called.
Both players patted and the action checked through.
Both remained pat and Le led, which Hellmuth called as he scoffed and remarked, "You deserve it, buddy."
Le fired again after two more pats and Hellmuth called. Le revealed 9♠8♦7♥6♣ for a nine-badugi which was good as Hellmuth revealed that he had a ten.
"These guys that have no f*cking chance in mixed games always school me. What the f*ck!" complained Hellmuth in the post-mortem.
Hellmuth would continue well into the next few hands with language that is inappropriate for reporting purposes.
