Hellmuth Blows Up After Paying Off Kornuth
Chance Kornuth opened to 100,000 in the cutoff and Phil Hellmuth called on the button before Martin Kabrhel also called out of the big blind.
"If he's in, I'm in," Kabrhel said after Hellmuth called.
Kabrhel checked on the flop of 9♠K♠K♦ and Kornuth continued for 85,000. Only Hellmuth called. Kornuth then checked on the 5♣ turn and Hellmuth checked back.
Kornuth bet 385,000 on the 7♦ river and Hellmuth quickly called as Kornuth turned over Q♦9♣ for a pair of nines.
"This f***ing guy," Hellmuth muttered as he held up what he said was ace-high. "F***!"
Hellmuth had to stand up and step away from the table and was still ranting several minutes later as Kornuth finally broke composure and burst into laughter.
"I kept it together as long as I could," said Kornuth.
