Hellmuth Folds a Straight

With every player at the table limping in, Ivan Ermin checked his option in the big blind.

All five players checked on a flop of 8♣10♦J♦ to reveal the Q♠ on the turn. Under the gun was Phil Hellmuth who led out for 13,000 and Martin Nielsen to his direct left raised to 35,000. All remaining players folded while Hellmuth elected to call.

The 7♥ fell on the river and Hellmuth checked. Nielsen put him in for his remaining 75,000 and Hellmuth went into the tank, before eventually folding. Hellmuth flashed the 9♦ and Nielsen claimed this pot.
