Phil Hellmuth Chipping Up

[user37786]

He arrived late and lost the first hand he played, but Phil Hellmuth has steadily built up his stack since the rebuy period ended. He just won a big pot when, on a board reading {5-Spades} {6-Spades} {9-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}, Hellmuth bet 4,800 and was called. He showed {A-Clubs} {9-Spades} and scooped in the pot. He's now up over 30,000 in chips.
