Phil Hellmuth raised up the action to 6,000 from middle position. One by one, each player mucked before it got to Josh Arieh in the big blind. He wasn't so willing to give Hellmuth the pot and made the call.

The flop came down {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {7-Hearts} and both players checked. The turn was the {3-Spades} and Arieh checked again. Hellmuth fired 8,000 and Arieh called.

The river brought the {K-Spades} and Arieh took a moment to himself. He then bet out 20,000. Hellmuth didn't seem too thrilled and took his time. After about a minute went by, he tossed in the call. Arieh tabled {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} for top two pair and Hellmuth mucked.

"Nice dealing, buddy. You just gave the guy that gave me 100 two pair, nice one," Hellmuth said, while Arieh chuckled. Hellmuth then went on to explain to Arieh how he's going to get all of his chips.

"We're gonna play a big pot," said Hellmuth. "And I'm gonna show you the nuts."

"I can't wait," responded Arieh. "The window's always open."

"You deal me king-queen and him king-jack and he gets there. Unreal," finished Hellmuth.

"Nice call," said Arieh sarcastically.
