Hellmuth is Back in the Race

Sep 23, 2011

WPT Malta Day 2
On a flop of [Ah] [Qc] [8h] and 21,000 in the pot Phil Hellmuth bets 8,000. Andras Fekete has been having a bit of verbal with Hellmuth all day, and he raises it to 19,700 from his direct left. Hellmuth considers his options before raising to 42,000 and Fekete moves all-in.

"I guess you have a set but I have to call," says Hellmuth.

The players flip them over and it is Hellmuth who is ahead with top two pair [Ad] [Qh] and Fekete has bottom two pair with [Ac] [8c]

Neither the turn [7s] nor the river [Kc] helps Fekete and Hellmuth is right back in this tournament.

Hellmuth ~ 175,000
Fekete ~ 47,000
