Hellmuth's Table
Phil Hellmuth made his way to the tournament room after the dinner break but so far things haven't gone his way. We have to note that Hellmuth's seated at an extraordinarily tough table with no less than seven other players we recognized.
Hellmuth just raised under the gun to 1,500 and folded when Pratyush Buddiga moved all in for 9,425 from the button. On the very next hand Salman Behbehani raised under the gun plus one to 1,200 and the action was folded to Hellmuth in the big blind.
Hellmuth three-bet to 3,200 and Behbehani called after which the flop brought . Both players checked and on the turn the hit and Hellmuth bet 5,000. Behbehani called and on the river the hit. The action was checked again and Hellmuth showed . Behbehani turned over and raked in the pot.
"You could've gotten it all," Hellmuth said, as he was willing to go all in on the flop if Behbehani would've bet. Behbehani did not bet and therefor the cameras keep rolling on Hellmuth who's, as always, very entertaining to watch.
