Hand #129: Phil Hellmuth Eliminated in 3rd ($93,168)

Hellmuth: 3rd Place
Hellmuth: 3rd Place
Omaha-8:

Phil Hellmuth limps in the small blind and Tommy Hang raises in the big blind. Hellmuth calls all in.

Hellmuth: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Hang: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Board: {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Hellmuth is eliminated. Though he doesn't win the mixed-game bracelet this time, his performance this time certainly proves a point. Hellmuth can play non-hold'em, and it appears to only be a matter of time before he'll add #12 to his wrist.
