Hellmuth Busts Smith
Level 11
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Ivan Luca opened the hijack to 44,000 before Phil Hellmuth three-bet the cutoff to 102,000. Big blind Dan Smith counted out his chips and eventually moved all in for 280,000 total. Luca folded right away, and Hellmuth called, having Smith covered.
Dan Smith: 
Phil Hellmuth: 
The 
flop opened the door for some split pots, but the 
made things even worse for Smith. The river 
completed the board and Smith was eliminated.
The two hugged it out for a bit before Smith departed.
