Phil Hellmuth raised to 16,000 from late position and Kenny Hsiung made the call from the button.

Hellmuth bet 20,000 on the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

flop and Hsuing made the call. On the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

turn Hellmuth tried 30,000 but was called again and the two saw a {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

river.

This time Hellmuth checked and folded to a 75,000 bet, showing {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

as he did so. Hsuing flipped {J-?}

{J-?}

{J-?}

.

A few hands later Hellmuth saw his small blind raise be reraised by Jose Manuel Gomez Rebenaque for an additional 30,000. Hellmuth called and then called a 50,000 bet on the flop of {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

{2-Diamonds}

. Both players checked the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

turn before Hellmuth bet 80,000 on the {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

river.

He was immediately called by Rebenaque's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Hearts}

and Hellmuth mucked and is now down to just 240,000.
