The First One Goes To Hellmuth

Under the gun Phil Hellmuth raised on the first hand on the last table in this event. He made it 800,000 and David Einhorn called from the button. Brian Rast was on the big blind and he called as well.

The flop came down {6-Spades}{K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and all three players checked. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and both Rast and Einhorn folded to Hellmuth's 1,000,000-chip bet.
