Stephen Chidwick Hit with the One-Two Punch
Level 11
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick took a hit after doubling Dan Smith, and he was just dealt another blow courtesy of Phil Hellmuth.
It happened when Steffen Sontheimer opened for 13,000 under the gun and Chidwick moved all in from the small blind. Phil Hellmuth called off for 131,500 from the big and Sontheimer folded.
Hellmuth: 
Chidwick: 
It was a race, but not after the flop came down 
to pair Hellmuth's ace. The 
turn improved Hellmuth to two pair, and he shipped the double after the 
was run out on the river.
