Tomasz Gluszko: XxXx/5♠3♥9♠5♣/Xx
James Cheung: XxXx/A♥K♥ - folded on fourth street
Phil Hellmuth: 10♠6♠2♠/7♠8♠3♦6♥
Tomasz Gluszko brought in, James Cheung completed, and Phil Hellmuth called. Gluszko also matched the bet, after which it checked to him on fourth street.
Gluszko bet, Cheung folded, and Hellmuth called. Gluszko slowed down on fifth street, checking it over to Hellmuth. Hellmuth bet, Gluszko called, and the same sequence happened twice more.
Hellmuth tabled a flush and an eight-low, and Gluszko's cards disappeared into the muck.
"The flush surprised me a little," Gluszko told Hellmuth.
"Lucky river," Hellmuth admitted.
While this hand took place, Hellmuth's fellow Hall of Famer Phil Ivey was eliminated at another table.
