Hellmuth Not Sitting Still

We told you Hellmuth was anxious to get involved. He played the first three hands he saw after he sat down at the table. Two of them he chopped with Perry Friedman and he won the other.

In the most recent pot, he is once again tangling with Friedman. From the cutoff, Hellmuth opens the betting with a raise. Friedman is the lone caller. The flop comes down {A-Spades}

. Friedman checks, Hellmuth bets, and Friedman calls.

The turn is the {J-Diamonds}

. Again it's checked to Hellmuth who bets, only to get check-raised by Friedman. Of course, Hellmuth feels insulted by the play. "Raise me?! Did he raise me? I call."

The river comes down the {5-Diamonds}
