Top Pair for Hellmuth

Level 16 : 7,000/14,000, 14,000 ante

Steffen Sontheimer opened to 32,000 from the hijack and Phil Hellmuth called next to speak in the cutoff.

Erik Seidel defended his big blind and checked the {Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop, as did Sontheimer, before Hellmuth bet 43,000.

Seidel and Sontheimer quickly folded, and Hellmuth tabled his {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} for top pair after shoving all in the previous hand over a Bryn Kenney open with {A-}{K-}.

Hellmuth is now over 600,000 in chips; good for fourth overall.
