"You Wouldn't Lie to Your Old Pal Nick, Would Ya?"

Level 14 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

We noticed a sizable pot at the featured table, so we headed over to see a bet of 215,000 in front of Nick Schulman, who was under the gun and facing a raise to 520,000 from Phil Hellmuth, who was in middle position. The board had come {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Schulman seemed pained as he thought for a while before finally deciding on a fold.

The players at the table cajoled Hellmuth to reveal his holding, reminding him it would be broadcast soon anyway.

"I had it, Nick," Hellmuth said with a smile. "You have to tell me your hand, though."

"You wouldn't lie to your old pal Nick, would ya?" Schulman asked.

It sounded like Schulman said he had ace-queen with the queen of hearts, and Hellmuth claimed to have held eights full.
