Stud Hi-Lo

Phil Hellmuth completed and Jason Daly called.

Jason Daly: XxXx/3♣8♠Q♠10♣/Xx
Phil Hellmuth: XxXx/7♦A♠10♥8♣/Xx

Hellmuth bet on every street and Daly called each time.

"Deuces," Hellmuth said on seventh street after Daly called, prompting Daly to turn over 8♥7♣5♦ for a pair of eights.

"Eights, huh? Well Phil you did it," Hellmuth began to speak aloud "you tried to bluff the one maniac calling down every hand."

He continued to speak to himself while the rest of the table remained silent.

"I opened early and caught an ace on fourth street and he called with eights. Poker's just so easy, just collect the chips. The guy is trying to give it you every hand and you try to bluff him."

A couple of moments passed.

"It does suck to miss that one," admitted Hellmuth, earning a few nods from the table.

Epstein showed A♦K♦Q♦2♣ for the nut low and a pair of queens. Chanthabouasy had a naked nut low with A♣9♦4♠2♠, and Weng got neither half of the pot with his A♠10♥3♠3♣, sending him to the rail.
