Hellmuth Takes a Big Pot From Cheong
Joseph Cheong raised to 110,000 under the gun and Phil Hellmuth defended from the big blind. The 
flop saw Hellmuth lead out for 175,000 and Cheong called. The same action happened on the 
turn, but this time Hellmuth's bet was 200,000.
When the 
peeled off on the river, Hellmuth came out with a big bet of 600,000 and Cheong made a quick call. Hellmuth quickly rolled over 
for a full house and the win.
