Omaha Sends Hellmuth Spiraling

Level 20 : Limits 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

A pair of sizeable hands have recently gone the wrong way for Phil Hellmuth, cutting a sizeable chunk out of his stack.

First, picking action up on the river with several bets in the middle and a completed board of 7?9?K?8?2?, Hellmuth check-called a river bet from the small blind versus David "Bakes" Baker on the button to see his opponent show 8?6?5?4? for a nine-high straight and a low.

Hellmuth mucked his hand and said he'd "been waiting all day to get Baker when he got out of line". Unfortunately for the 16-time bracelet winner that chance didn't go his way.

Neither did a hand shortly after.

Hellmuth raised in the hijack and after a re-raise from Alex Livingston on the button, Esther Taylor and Brian Yoon came along as well from the small and big blinds respectively. Hellmuth called as well to set up a four-way flop.

It came Q?9?4? and after the blinds checked to Hellmuth, he bet and got raised by Livingston. Taylor and Yoon folded, leaving the pot heads-up.

On the 10? turn, Hellmuth check-called a bet from Livingston, then again on the 6? river.

Livingston showed A?Q?J?4? for two pair, queens and fours, while Hellmuth flashed his A?9?4?3? for two pair of nines and fours with a missed low draw.
