Phil Hellmuth Eliminated in 19th Place ($13,628)
Niveau 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
The last Hall of Famer in the field has fallen.
Phil Hellmuth moved all in from the button for his last 615,000 and was called by Josh Palmer in the big blind.
Phil Hellmuth: 8♦8♣
Josh Palmer: A♦J♦
Hellmuth would need to win the flip in order to survive, but the 3♦6♦3♠ flop provided Palmer additional outs to eliminate the 17-time bracelet winner.
The 4♣ turn left both hands unchanged, but Palmer would get lucky and spike a diamond on the 2♦ river, completing the flush and sending the "Poker Brat" to the payout desk.
In typical Hellmuth fashion, he was gracious in defeat and handed Palmer over the bounty slip worth $2,007.
