Level 14
Badeucy
Dustin Dirksen raised on the button and Phil Hellmuth called in the big blind.
Hellmuth drew two, while Dirksen drew three. Hellmuth led out with a bet and Dirksen called.
Both players checked after drawing two and Hellmuth then drew one, while Dirksen took two again. Hellmuth checked to Dirksen who bet and Hellmuth called.
"You know I have nut, nut," Dirksen said as he turned over 7♣5♦4♣3♥2♠ to win the pot. Hellmuth spent a moment muttering to himself and staring at the cards before mucking.
"I don't think you played that very well. You led out, that's a bad bet. That's why you play tournaments. You should come to the cash games, we'll light you up," Dirksen told him.
