Hellmuth is "Gamblin'"

Pot-Limit Omaha

Vladimir Shchemelev raised to 55,000 from early position, Phil Hellmuth called out of the big blind, and the flop came down {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Both players checked.

The turn was the {k-Hearts}. Hellmuth checked, Shchemelev fired 125,000, and Hellmuth potted all in. Shchemelev folded. Hellmuth tabled {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{8-Clubs} for top set with flush and straight draws.

"I was gamblin'!" Hellmuth exclaimed after the hand.
