Hellmuth Chipping Up

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Phil Hellmuth entered play today with only 54,000 in chips. He's since tripled that with a nice chunk of change coming in a recent pot with Scott Seiver when he rivered a set of fives with {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} on a {Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} board and Seiver paid off his 20,000 bet. Time will tell if Hellmuth can keep it up, but not many play a short stack like Hellmuth does. Just ask Maurice Hawkins.
