Baranov Calls Hellmuth with King High

Sergii Baranov raised to 120,000 from the small blind and Phil Hellmuth defended from the big. The {2-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop saw Baranov bet 120,000 only to have Hellmuth raise to 240,000. Baranov made the call and then both players checked the {4-Clubs} turn. The {3-Clubs} river saw Baranov check, which opened the door for Hellmuth to bet 220,000. Baranov thought long and hard before making the call with {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, and he was glad he did as it was good against Hellmuth's {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.
