Robert Finlay Outplays the Man

Robert Finlay just clashed with Phil Hellmuth and after the hand was over, Finlay looked at me and said, "write about me outplaying the man." So here you are Mr Finlay - your five-minutes of fame!

Finlay made up the small change from the small blind and Hellmuth added 6,000 more to the pot and Finlay snap-called. The flop was {Q-Clubs} {6-Spades} {4-Clubs} and both players quickly checked. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and Finlay came out betting for 10,000 and Hellmuth nearly bit his hand off. The final card was the {3-Spades} and no sooner had it landed on the table, Finlay had moved all-in. Hellmuth leapt to his feet.

"Come on! Come on!" He said before composing himself. "It's not hard to trap an English guy who plays nine-three off-suit," Said Hellmuth referring to an earlier hand between the pair.

Hellmuth folded his hand and Finlay flashed {K-Clubs} {5-Clubs} for the bluff.
