Hellmuth Eliminates Kornuth
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 9,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth opened to 18,000 from under the gun and was three-bet to 60,000 by Chance Kornuth in the hijack. Action folded back to Hellmuth, who paused before announcing he was all in, which was enough to put Kornuth all in for his last 130,000.
Hellmuth stood pat and Kornuth went deep into the tank before saying, "I have no idea if I'm supposed to break this ten-seven or not."
Kornuth did eventually decide to draw one and hands were turned face up.
Chance Kornuth: 7x6x4x2x
Phil Hellmuth: 10x7x5x4x3x
Kornuth broke correctly, but ended up drawing a 10x back anyways to be eliminated.
