Vitch continued betting on fourth street and Daher called. Vitch then bet on fifth, and this time Daher got out of the way.

"Three-across club. I'm 50-50," Hellmuth said before turning over a 6x that proved to be the last card he would see in this tournament.
"Razz, the killer," Bryn Kenney said as Hellmuth made his exit three spots off the money.
