Full House for Hellmuth
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Laurent Manderlier opened to 8,000 from the button and he was called by the defending champion Phil Hellmuth in the big blind.
Manderlier continued for 5,000 on a flop of 10♦K♣A♦ but Hellmuth quickly check-raised to 10,000. Manderlier called to find the J♠ turn where both players checked.
Hellmuth threw 10,000 in front of him when he discovered the J♣ river. Manderlier folded and Hellmuth revealed A♠J♥ for a full house.
