Hellmuth Left Talking to Himself

Level 10 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Christian Christner raised to 11,000 from under the gun and was called by Steffen Sontheimer in the small blind and Phil Hellmuth in the big blind. The flop came {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and the action was checked to Christner who continued for 13,000. Sontheimer called and Hellmuth check-raised to 35,000. Christner folded and Sontheimer still called.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} and both players checked to the {10-Spades} on the river. Both players checked again and Sontheimer tabled {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Hellmuth couldn't beat it and mucked his cards. Hellmuth was left mumbling under his breath about how bad "these young kids" play.
