Hellmuth Takes One

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Phil Hellmuth raised to 70,000 from under the gun and was only called by Markus Gonsalves in the big blind.

The flop came {j-Spades}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, Gonsalves check-called the 55,000 continuation-bet of Hellmuth.

The turn brought them the {7-Spades}, Gonsalves checked again and so did Hellmuth.

The river completed the board with the {a-Spades}, Gonsalves checked for the last time. Hellmuth bet 150,000 and Gonsalves had a good look at Hellmuth. He tanked for about two minutes, looked at this cards again and then folded.
