Hellmuth Takes a Big Hit

[user196676]

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 1,500 ante

Brandon Cantu made it 15,000 to go from early position and was called by Phil Hellmuth from the hijack and David "Bakes" Baker from the small blind. Each player drew one card and the action was checked by both Bakes and Cantu.

Hellmuth fired out a bet of 52,000 and Bakes made the call. Cantu got out of the way and Bakes tabled {9-} {8-} {7-} {5-} {2-} . Hellmuth shipped his cards into the muck and and Baker scooped a pot that brought him up to 365,000. Hellmuth has fallen down to 80,000.
