Believe it or not, but I'm not bad at poker.

Hellmuth Takes Hit
Board: K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]


Picking it up on the turn, the opponent bets 1,000 and Hellmuth calls. On the river, Hellmuth bets 1,600. The opponent studies him. "Are you trying to get me off my hand?"
Hellmuth: "No, I think you have me beat, though. I think you have A-J." The opponent just calls, indeed with A-J and the straight. Hellmuth has 13,000.


That can't be correct, right?

I read this as well and found it odd. Possibly misreported hand where the turn is actually not a Q but an A or J.

Or more likely there is a flush out or a board pair or something. But hey, maybe he "knew he wasn't getting any more out of Phil" like the other guy said....ahahahahaha.

Daniel Negreanu was eliminated in the last level. He had the majority of his chips committed on an 8-7-5 board with pocket nines. His opponent sheepishly turned over K-4. However the 6 fell on the turn completing his gutshot. The river couldn't help Negreanu. He was eliminated a few hands later.

my god, i swear the reporters have a prop bet going as to how many ridiculously awful mistakes they can make without getting fired or something
