Phil Hellmuth Eliminated in 4th Place ($200,000)
Level 22
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
A short-stacked Phil Hellmuth moved all in under the gun for 495,000 and Tom Marchese isolated by three-betting all in over the top from the small blind.
Hellmuth:
Marchese:
In all three of the elimination hands thus far an ace has spiked on the river, but the opposite happened here as the flop gave Marchese a set. Hellmuth needed running straight cards, but the turn took away any chance of that happening.
The river made Hellmuth's elimination official, and he headed to the exit. He also stated he may go take a nap before jumping into Event #3.
