Blumenthal Leaves Hellmuth on Crumbs
Omaha-8
Eddie Blumenthal mistakenly misread the game that was being played and his attempt at a raise was limited to a call. Phil Hellmuth came along in the small blind along with Jon Turner in the big blind.
The flop came 
and the action checked to Blumenthal who tossed in a bet. Hellmuth instantly check-raised and Turned got out of the way. Blumenthal put in a three-bet and Hellmuth just called.
The turn was the 
and Hellmuth check-called another bet from Blumenthal. The 
on the river paired the board and Hellmuth checked again. Blumenthal moved a bet into the middle and Hellmuth quickly called. Blumenthal rolled over 
for a full house and Hellmuth bounced from his seat.
"Are you f*cking kidding me? This goofball doesn't even know how to play and he's got all of the chips." Hellmuth flashed the 
for trip eights and then his cards went flying to the muck.
