Robert Mizrachi raised in early position, and Phil Hellmuth defended in the big blind. Hellmuth checked in the dark before he raised Mizrachi's bet on the Q♠10♦3♦ flop.
Mizrachi called to the 8♥ turn, where Hellmuth quickly fired a bet. Mizrachi raised, and Hellmuth called.
The 9♠ turn was then checked to showdown. Mizrachi announced a set and tabled 3♥3♣, but Hellmuth had rivered a straight with A♠A♣7♣6♦ to scoop the pot and chip up further.
One hand later, the short-stacked Christian Harder departed from this table after losing his last big bet.
