Hellmuth Catches Dealer Error, Then Loses Pot
When we walked up to the table, Hellmuth was asking the dealer to count the antes, to make sure they were all there. "I'm sure you're right, but I just want to check," Hellmuth said. The dealer counted the antes, and sure enough, one was missing.
"I never miss anything," Hellmuth said.
The player who missed his ante, promptly put the ante in, and the action started. A player in early position limped in for 600. Action folded around to the button who raised to 2,200. Hellmuth called from the small blind, and the early position limper called too.
The flop rolled off 
.
Hellmuth promptly bet out 1,400. The limper folded. Then the button went all in for 5,925 total. This sent Hellmuth into the tank. Angrily he mulled over his options, and eventually showed his hand to Chad Brown before folding. Hellmuth still has a healthy stack with around 11,000 chips.
