Hand #113

Owais Ahmed had the button. Phil Hellmuth limped under the gun, Minh Ly called in the small blind and Brian Rast checked in the big blind. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Ly checked and Rast bet 180,000. Hellmuth called and Ly folded.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and Rast bet 375,000. Hellmuth studied Rast with his hand across his mouth. He then called.

The river completed the board with the {9-Hearts} and Rast didn't slow down. He reached for even more chips and bet 645,000. "Call!" said Hellmuth immediately.

"You win," said Rast.

Hellmuth tabled the {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for top set and Rast mucked.
