Phil Hellmuth (Sort of) Calls Ray Henson's Hand

Level 19 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Phil Hellmuth limped under the gun and Tom McCormick called before Ray Henson called from the button. Aaron Sacks checked his option.

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and all four players checked. The turn was the {j-Diamonds} and Sacks checked before Hellmuth bet. Henson and McCormick both called.

The river was the {6-Hearts} and Hellmuth bet again. McCormick folded and Henson took a moment before making his decision.

Hellmuth offered up one of his classic phrases.

"I'll take this one, you take the next one."

Henson called.

"King jack," Hellmuth said.

Henson turned over {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} at the same time Hellmuth threw out {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

"Did you think he was calling out your hand?" Shaun Deeb asked Henson.

"Yes. I did."

Henson and Hellmuth chopped the pot.
