Hellmuth Fills Up

No-Limit Hold'em

Phil Hellmuth opened to 8,600 from early position, and received calls from David Oppenheim (hijack) and George Lind (big blind). The flop fell {2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Lind checked, and Hellmuth continued for 17,000. Only Oppenheim called.

Both players checked the {6-Hearts} on the turn, and after the {7-Hearts} paired the board on the river, Hellmuth led for 36,900. Oppenheim called, and Hellmuth tabled {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for a full house.

Oppenheim mucked, and Hellmuth raked in a nice-sized pot.
