More Checking in the Dark

The table folded around to Phil Hellmuth who completed from the small blind. David Benyamine checked his option from the "large blind" (as our announcer describes it).

The flop came {7-Hearts}

. Hellmuth checked, Benyamine bet 30,000, and Hellmuth called.

Hellmuth again checked in the dark before the turn card appeared, the {6-Hearts}

. Benyamine checked behind.

The river was the {8-Spades}

. Hellmuth counted out a bet of 45,000 and pushed his chips forward, and Benyamine folded.
