Not an Easy Table for Hellmuth
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
Phil Hellmuth took a seat on quite an interesting table that includes Alex Foxen, Dominik Desset, big stack Dominik Arnold, Georgios Zisimopoulos and Ivan Baric. Hellmuth took a hit early on and quickly lost half his stack while Desset just chipped up without showdown.
Baric raised to 2,000 and picked up three callers in Desset, Arnold, and Foxen in the big blind. The flop of 
was checked and Foxen bet the 
turn for 4,500. Only Desset called and the 
appeared on the river. Foxen bet 8,600 and Desset moved all in for more than 32,000 to force a quick fold.
"Pocket jacks?" Baric asked his table neighbour, but Desset just smiled while stacking up the chips.
