Hellmuth Puts It All on the Line

A preflop situation which looked as though it was almost certainly going to snowball into an all-in and call situation didn't just now, and Phil Hellmuth has a few more to play with. He moved all in over the top of Robert Tanita whose last raise had been to 6,500, and there was 8,200 spread in front of him as he sat in traditional hands-clasped stillness waiting to see what, if anything, would call him. Finally, after a very long pause, Tanita opted for the pass, showing {3-Clubs} {3-Spades}. Hellmuth gains without further risk of elimination and is back over 20k.
