: 12,000/24,000, 6,000 ante
John Juanda opened to 63,000 from the button, and Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 180,000. Juanda quickly let it go.
On the next hand, Hellmuth opened to 70,000, and Juanda folded without incident.
On the next hand, Juanda opened to 62,000, giving Hellmuth a discount over the last raise. The Brat came right back with another three-bet, though -- 225,000 total this time. Juanda spent some time pondering, then slid the call into the pot.
Juanda took two cards and Hellmuth one. Action was on Hellmuth, and he squeezed his cards, took pause, and announced an all in. Juanda quickly folded, and Hellmuth has opened up a small lead once again with 2.2 million to Juanda's 1.6 million.
