Hellmuth and His Railbirds

Table 48, which is home to Phil Hellmuth and Jason Mercier, is one of the tables right next to the rail. As such, quite a few spectators have gathered to watch the action.

In a recent hand, Hellmuth made a raise and received no callers. "What did I have last time?" he asked.

"Kings," replied a tablemate. Sure enough, Hellmuth turned over pocket kings, much to the railbirds' delight. Hellmuth is up to around 3,750.
