Phil Hellmuths Doubles Up in His First Hand

Sep 22, 2011


Tony Sanguedolce raises to 1,350 in early position and Mats Karlson cold calls one seat to his left. The action folds around to Phil Hellmuth in the big blind (who had just sat down) and he raises to 6,400. Tony Sanguedolce is next to act and he folds but Karlson moves all-in and Hellmuth cannot get his money in quick enough.

Hellmuth: [As] [Ah]
Karlson: [Js] [Jc]

Board: [8c] [3d] [Kd] [10c] [4d]

Hellmuth doubles up in his very first hand and now has 70,000 whilst Karlson has been knocked down to 62,000
