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

Steffen Sontheimer raised to 32,000 from early position and Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 62,000 directly to his left. The action folded back around to Sontheimer who made the call. The flop came {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades} and both players checked to the {8-Diamonds} on the turn.

Sontheimer led out for 55,000 and Hellmuth called. The river was the {10-Hearts} and Sontheimer barrelled again for 115,000. Hellmuth snapped him off and Sontheimer announced ace-high. Hellmuth tabled {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and quickly started scooping the pot. Hellmuth stacked his chips in silence but that might not last for long.
