Amit Scoops O8 Pot, Hellmuth Can't Win a Hand

Omaha-8:

Raymond Dehkharghani opened for a raise from middle position, Rafi Amit called on the button and Phil Hellmuth called from the big blind. The flop was {Q-Clubs} {6-Spades} {3-Spades}. Hellmuth led out and both Dehkharghani and Amit called. The turn was the {8-Hearts}. Action was checked to Amit, who bet and both players called. The river was the {6-Diamonds}. Again, Hellmuth and Dehkharghani check-called a bet from Amit.

Amit turned up {A-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {8-Clubs} and scooped the pot with two pair eights and sixes for high and the nut low. He's now up to 139,000 while Dehkharghani is still healthy at 150,000. Hellmuth is down to 63,000 and was last spotted complaining about how he hadn't won a hand in over an hour.
