Hellmuth Hurting

He started the day second in chips but only 20 minutes into the day he has dropped below average. We caught the action on the turn between Krakow and Hellmuth when the following happened.

The board read {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} when Hellmuth bet 38,000 from the big blind. Krakow tanked for a bit before calling from the under the gun position. The river was the {9-Hearts} and both players checked. "Nine," Hellmuth said after which Krakow turned over {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} to scoop the pot.

Krakow is climbing while Hellmuth has dropped to the middle of the pack.
