Jean-Robert Bellande opened to 3,000 from middle position and Phil Hellmuth made the call.

On a flop of {9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs} Bellande fired out 5,000 and Hellmuth quickly made the call to see the {7-Clubs} land on the turn and a check follow from Bellande.

"How much you have left?" asked Hellmuth.

Bellande sat there looking blankly at the board before parting his hands so that Hellmuth could view in full sight his chip stack.

"What's the total?" Hellmuth asked the dealer as the dealer cut down Bellande's stack to total 25,400.

"Small bets mean nothing" stated Hellmuth as he tossed in a 3,800-chip bet which Bellande called before both players checked the {2-Diamonds} on the river.

Bellande tabled his {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Hellmuth asked, "what he have?"

Hellmuth nodded his head and flashed his {4-Hearts}{4-Spades} before folding to slip to 54,000 as Bellande began to rake in the pot to climb back to 48,000.

"Your small bets mean nothing Phil" Bellande added.

"All those guys that watch poker VT are wasting their time. If they want to play perfect poker they should just put a camera behind me. I couldn't of played that hand any better," Bellande finished off much to the amusement of the rail and fellow table combatants.
