Phil Wins One
Nivel 24
: 15,000/30,000, 7,000 ante
An annoyed Phil Hellmuth raised it to 65,000 from the button and was called by Juanda. Juanda took one card and Hellmuth quickly threw two cards at the dealer, clearly angered at his current predicament.
Juanda fired out a bet of 142,000 and Hellmuth slowly moved out pink stacks toward the middle, raising it to 340,000. Juanda said "I guess I'll have to take a look" and the audience gave a little laugh. Juanda tossed his cards into the muck and Hellmuth triumphantly showed a pair of fours.
This hand served as a clear morale booster to Hellmuth, letting him know that he's still able to win a pot after losing several in a row.
Juanda: 2,800,000
Hellmuth: 1,000,000
