"Tight is Right!"
Having shadowed the comparatively short-stacked Hellmuth since he was in even worse shape, it appears that almost every small pot since that bad start for him has gone his way. There has been some caginess on Ram Vaswani's side too - with a couple of pots being raised preflop but then checked to showdown.
Will Fallia, playing down the other end of the table from Hellmuth and Vaswani against Yevgeniy Timoshenko leaned over to tell Hellmuth conspiratorially, "Tight is right!" He barely acknowledged this, looking totally intent on his comeback which seems to be slowly but surely working at the moment.
