Level 19
: Limits 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Limit Hold'em
Just as players were preparing to head off on break, Phil Hellmuth and Esther Taylor went heads-up on a board of A♥K♠K♥9♦9♣ with several bets already in the middle.
Hellmuth, in the hijack, bet again on the river and Taylor tanked before she called. Hellmuth quickly turned over A♣K♣ for the flopped full house as he took down a big pot before leaving for break.
