Two Black Nines

Phil Hellmuth opened with a raise only to have Ashton Griffin three-bet all in for a little over 20,000. Action was back on Hellmuth and he looked at his cards again and called.

Griffin showed {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and Hellmuth rolled over the very hand that he famously won the World Series of Poker Main Event with - {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

The board fell down {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{j-Hearts} and Hellmuth was able to score the knockout. He's currently sitting at 165,000 while Griffin's tournament is officially over.
