Kings for Caesar

A player in middle position raised to 2,500, got one caller, then Phil Hellmuth reraised to 10,000 from the hijack seat. It folded back around to the original raiser who called, and the third player got out.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. Hellmuth's opponent checked, he waited about fifteen seconds, then bet 7,000, and his opponent folded. Hellmuth showed pocket kings as he dragged the pot.

The Poker Brat has 139,000 now.
