On the first hand of the day, Jason Kluska limped in from the small blind and Phil Hellmuth raised in the big blind. Kluska called, and they went heads-up to the 9♠10♠Q♥ flop.
Both players checked to the 8♣ turn, where Kluska led out with a bet. Hellmuth called, and Kluska bet his last chips on the 9♥ river. Hellmuth called to put him at risk.
Kluska showed A♥7♦6♦5♦, while Hellmuth had A♦Q♣9♣4♠ for a full house to win the pot.
"Pleasure playing with you for 38 seconds," Kluska joked as he graciously went around the table to shake each of his opponents' hands before making his exit.
