Some Small Pots for Hellmuth
Level 25
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
The last four pots have all gone to Phil Hellmuth and only one of those reached a showdown.
It began with a limp in the small blind from Hellmuth and a check from Alexander Lakhov in the big.
The flop fell 
. Hellmuth bet 7,000 and Lakhov called. Then the 
turn and river both went check-check.
"Small pair" announced Hellmuth as he turned over 
. It was good enough.
