Players have just returned from the break and Phil Hellmuth and Thomas Taylor have just gotten involved in a hand together.

Hellmuth began by opening to 7,000 and only Taylor fancied seeing a flop, calling on the button.

It was a {3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop that saw Hellmuth check and Taylor check behind. On the {3-Clubs} turn, Hellmuth check-called Taylor's bet of 6,500.

The final card was a {10-Spades}, pairing the board for a second time. Hellmuth checked once more and Taylor put 16,000 over the line. It was enough to convince Hellmuth to fold and Taylor scooped the pot.
