Higgs vs. Hellmuth

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

After Phil Hellmuth opened with a raise from early position, Sam Higgs three-bet to 1,050 from the small blind. Jeff Rossiter folded the big, Hellmuth called, and it was heads-up action to the {6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{a-Spades} flop. Higgs was first to act and wasted little time in betting out 1,625, which Hellmuth called.

When the {8-Hearts} peeled off on the turn, Higgs upped the bet to 4,000, and this gave Hellmuth pause. He pulled his cards up to eye level and began shuffling them back and forth. He then folded the {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{q-Spades}{9-Spades} face up.
