The players return from break to increased blinds of 20,000-40,000, with a 5,000 ante. Everyone is seated and ready to go (including Hellmuth this time), so it's time to shuffle up and deal!

Seat 5 - Jason Song - 360,000
Seat 8 - Shankar Pillai - 655,000

Hand #67 - Phil Hellmuth has the button in seat 1, Song raises under the gun to 85,000, winning the blinds and antes.

Hand #66

Hand #66 - Beth Shak has the button in seat 10, Hellmuth limps from the small blind for 30,000, and Fineman checks his option. The flop comes {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}, and both players check. The turn card is the {7-Hearts}, Hellmuth bets 40,000, and Fineman folds. Hellmuth takes the pot.

Hellmuth leans back and raises his arms in frustration, as he was apparently trying to trap Fineman with a big hand.

Hand #65

Hand #65 - Shankar Pillai has the button in seat 8, Fineman raises under the gun to 90,000, Pillai moves all in from the button for 500,000, and Fineman folds. Pillai takes the pot.

Hand #64

Hand #64 - Jason Song has the button in seat 5, Holmes raises to 85,000, Pillai reraises from the small blind to 220,000, and Holmes calls. The flop comes {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs}, Pillai bets 240,000, Holmes moves all in for about 603,000, and Pillai folds. Holmes shows the {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a double-gutshot straight draw as he collects the pot.
