Hellmuth Doubles Through Chan

Phil Hellmuth, short-stacked after running into Jim Bechtel's quad aces, managed to double through Johnny Chan to gain some breathing room. The last of the chips went in after the turn, with the board showing {4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Chan had {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}, but Hellmuth had {4-Spades}{4-Hearts} for the set.

Hellmuth moved back up to 6,800 with the pot.
