Two Hands with Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth opened to 600 in the cutoff, and the player on the button made it 1,800 to go. Hellmuth called, and both players checked the 
flop. Hellmuth checked again on the 
turn, and his opponent bet 2,000. Hellmuth called, and the 
river prompted him to fire out a huge bet of 10,000. His opponent thought a bit before calling.
"Ace-high flush," Hellmuth said, showing 
.
The next hand, a player opened to 800 from under the gun, and Hellmuth three-bet to 2,500. His opponent four-bet to 6,600, and Hellmuth quickly called. On the 
flop, Hellmuth's opponent cut out a continuation-bet, and Hellmuth loudly announced all in. His opponent insta-mucked.
"He folded?" Hellmuth asked. "Boy, did I put a bluff on you," he said with a smile before showing 
.
"You're a sick man," he continued. "I let you raise 30 hands in a row, then I reraise you one time and you four-bet me like that?!"
