Ivey Leaves Hellmuth on Fumes
Level 15
Omaha Hi-Lo
Phil Hellmuth defended the big blind against a button raise by Phil Ivey and then stuck around all the way on the 9?7?4?8?9? runout, check-calling all the way. Hellmuth's A?Q?7?3? were the second nut low with nines and sevens. He only earned one quarter of the pot, as Ivey had the A?K?9?3? for trips nines and the same low.
That loss left Hellmuth rambling with a small rail gathered right behind him in the Horseshoe Event Center.
