Hellman Gets the Better of Booth Again
With a raise to 1,300 and two calls before him, Erik Hellman three-bet to 4,800 from the small blind. Only Brad Booth (from the cutoff) came along to see the 

flop.
Hellman bet 4,900, Booth called, and the
hit the turn. Both checked to see the
river where Hellman bet 13,400. After about 30 seconds, Booth called.
Hellman tabled 
for the nut straight, winning the pot and upping his stack to about 285,000.
