Hellmuth Doubles His Short Stack
Level 21
Pot-Limit Omaha
David "Bakes" Baker raised from the small blind and Phil Hellmuth called, leaving himself just 17,000 behind.
The flop came 2?7?J? and Baker bet enough to put Hellmuth all in. Hellmuth snap-called.
Phil Hellmuth: 6?A?J?4?
David "Bakes" Baker: 5?7?Q?A?
Hellmuth was ahead with his pair of jacks and improved to two pair on the A? turn. The river came the 4? and Hellmuth stayed alive in the tournament.
