Dehkharghani River Raise Puts Hellmuth to the Test

Pot-Limit Omaha

Phil Hellmuth raised the pot to 55,000 from early position and was called by Ray Dehkharghani in the big blind.

Both players checked the 2♠J♦4♦ flop and then Dehkharghani check-called a bet of 60,000 from Hellmuth on the K♦ turn.

However, Dehkharghani would turn up the heat on the 2♦ river with a check-raise to 400,000, enough to put Hellmuth all-in, after Hellmuth bet 50,000.

This would send Hellmuth deep into the tank, taking close to six minutes before deciding to fold.
