Is This the Real Phil Hellmuth?

Level 4 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Phil Hellmuth walked into the tournament area to take his seat with his sunglasses and headphones already on. Just moments after sitting down to the left of Sam Trickett, the two players got involved in a hand.

With around 350,000 in the pot on a board reading {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Trickett led out for 150,000 from early position. Hellmuth announced a raise to 600,000 and Trickett took his time before making the call. The river landed the {q-Hearts} and both players checked. Trickett turned over {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} for a pair of aces and Hellmuth tabled {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}.

"Do I win?" Hellmuth asked with a smirk on his face. "Oh, he has a pair of aces," as the table all chuckled. "You're lucky you hit an ace or a king because I was going all the way. Today is going to be fun."

"It already is," added Adrian Mateos. He proceeded to three-bet Hellmuth in the next hand forcing him to fold. After the hand, Mateos mentioned he had ten-eight offsuit to rub some salt in the wound.

Sinclair Isn't Folding A Boat

Level 4 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Jack Sinclair
Jack Sinclair

With the board completed at {Q-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, Felipe Ramos had a bet 105,000 in front of him. Jack Sinclair check-raised to 450,000, which sent Ramos in the tank for several minutes. The Brazilian eventually emerged from it and opted for a three-bet to 1,100,000.

Sinclair raised an eyebrow, glossed over it for twenty seconds, then flicked in a T-500,000 chip to call.

Felipe Ramos: {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Jack Sinclair: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Sinclair's full house bested Ramos' trip queens and the 2017 World Series of Poker Main Event final tablist (8th - $1,200,000) scooped up a nice pot.

Carrel Forces Segebrecht to Fold

Level 4 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Charlie Carrel raised to 32,000 from under the gun and was called by Claas Segebrecht in the cutoff and Dan Shak in the big blind. The flop came {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Shak checked while Carrel continued for 40,000. Segebrecht called and Shak got out of the way.

The {4-Diamonds} paired the board on the turn and Carrel fired another 140,000. Segebrecht looked back at his cards before pushing them into the muck. The pot was shipped to Carrel as he starts the climb back to a starting stack.

Troyanovskiy Turns Two Pair

Level 3 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

The board read {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{q-Hearts} and Dario Sammartino checked from the small blind. Fedor Holz followed suit in early position and Vladimir Troyanovskiy bet 132,000 on the button into a pot of around 220,000. Sammartino called and Holz elected to fold.

The {4-Diamonds} on the river completed the board and Sammartino checked again. Troyanovskiy bet 258,000 and Sammartino took some time to think before making the call. Troyanovskiy tabled {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for two pair and Sammartino mucked his hand.
