Allain Doubles Through Hellmuth
Adrien Allain moved all in from early position for 18,700 and cleared the field all the way around to Phil Hellmuth in the small blind. The "Poker Brat" thought for about 30 seconds before putting in a call, the big blind folded, and the cards were turned up.

Hellmuth:   |
Allain:   |
It was a classic flip, but not after the flop came down 
. Allain had flopped a Broadway straight to take a commanding lead. The 
turn gave Hellmuth chop outs to a king, but the 
river was not it. A composed Hellmuth rapped the table and moved on to the next hand.
