Hellmuth and Leah Chop Idema; On the Money Bubble
Phil Hellmuth: / /

Leah brought it in, Idema completed, and both Hellmuth and Leah called. Leah checked on fourth, Idema bet, and both Leah and Hellmuth called again. The same action occurred on fifth, although Hellmuth called the hand "tricky" before he called, and on sixth, Leah made kings up.
Thinking that Leah checked, Idema fired out a bet. He then realized his error, pulled his chips back, then tossed them out again when Leah actually checked. Hellmuth called while laughing, Leah check-raised, and Idema called. Hellmuth then raised, Leah re-raised, Idema tank-folded, and Hellmuth capped the action. Leah called.
Leah check-called a bet on seventh, and the hands were opened.

Hellmuth:
The two chopped the pot, and we are now on the exact money bubble.
