Hellmuth and Haxton Itching for a Brawl

No-Limit Hold'em:

Mindset coach or not, Phil Hellmuth has been jawing at Isaac Haxton all afternoon. The two have played numerous pots together, although as of yet they've all been relatively small.

In a recent hand with a dead small blind, Hellmuth opened to 8,000 from middle position. Haxton, the big blind, re-raised to 29,000 and drew a speech from Hellmuth.

"I love you, kid," said Hellmuth. "I just wish I could play more no-limit with you. You have no stop button." Hellmuth, it turned out, hit the stop button in this hand. He folded.
