Hellmuth Spikes River to Double Through Jattin
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth was all in for 920,000 from the big blind against Farid Jattin, who was on the button.
Phil Hellmuth: 8?8?
Farid Jattin: A?A?
Hellmuth found himself in rough shape against Jattin's aces, but the 7?9?10? gave Hellmuth an open-ended straight draw to go along with his pair of eights.
The 2? turn changed nothing, but the 6? river drilled Hellmuth's straight draw and he scored the double up.
"Yes! Now we get to play some f***ing poker!" Hellmuth cheered in celebration.
