Nitsche Gets Hellmuth Talking to Himself

Level 11 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action was folded to Dominik Nitsche on the button who raised to 15,000. Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 45,000 from the big blind and Nitsche made the call. The flop came {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Hellmuth led out for 42,000. Nitsche called and the {6-Spades} fell on the turn.

Hellmuth checked and Nitsche checked behind. The {k-Spades} landed on the river and both players checked again. Hellmuth tabled {6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Nitsche showed {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. "I win!" Nitsche said after he rivered a pair of kings.

"You guys play good," Hellmuth said to the table who were all giggling to themselves. Five minutes later and Hellmuth is continuing on a rant about the same hand.
