Hellmuth Makin' Moves
Nivel 18
: 4,000/8,000, 2,000 ante
Under the gun, Nick Schulman opened to 21,000, and Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 67,000 from the cutoff seat. Schulman called, and both players took one card. After the draw, Schulman check-called a bet of 46,000, and Hellmuth announced his hand.
"Ten," he said.
"Ten what?" Schulman asked.
"Ten-nine-seven," came the response as the Brat showed . It was good, and that pot propels Hellmuth back up to 375,000, while Schulman falls to 385,000 -- both men still above average.
