Hellmuth Lays One Down

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Fedor Holz raised to 32,000 from middle position and Phil Hellmuth called from the big blind. The flop was {6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Hellmuth check-called a bet of 22,000 from Holz.

The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and Hellmuth checked again. Holz fired 45,000 and Hellmuth stuck around.

The {7-Hearts} completed the board and Hellmuth checked for the third time. Holz continued with a bet of 160,000. Hellmuth finally mucked his hand after flashing {a-}{k-} and spewing some words.

"I was supposed to double you up, Fedor. But I'm f***ing Phil Hellmuth. I'm the best hold'em player!"
