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.
