When we came to the table it was fourth street and both Hellmuth and Baker were checking. Fifth street would see Hellmuth fire out a bet and Baker call. Sixth would be the same and so too would seventh.

In the end, Baker had {a-Hearts} {q-Hearts} in the hol for a flush, while Helmuth flipped over {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades} to take down the low half of the pot. Despite chopping this hand in half, Hellmuth has managed to sit behind a handy chip stack today, while Baker's stack is currently struggling.
