Borland Not Intimidated by Hellmuth

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

"I'm Phil Hellmuth. I have a bounty. And I'm in the Poker Hall of Fame," Phil Hellmuth told his tablemates as he held up his bounty card and raised to 60,000.

James Borland then made it 150,000 from the hijack and Hellmuth called. Hellmuth checked dark heading to the 2107 flop, where Borland bet another 200,000.

"Aces are good, buddy," Hellmuth said as he snap-folded.

"I'll give you $100 right now to show a stone bluff," Martin Zamani told Borland.

"$200 to show a bluff," Ren Lin added.

"Can't do it," Borland replied with a smile as he took the pot.
