Dehkharghani River Raise Puts Hellmuth to the Test
Level 16
Pot-Limit Omaha
Phil Hellmuth raised the pot to 55,000 from early position and was called by Ray Dehkharghani in the big blind.
Both players checked the 2?J?4? flop and then Dehkharghani check-called a bet of 60,000 from Hellmuth on the K? turn.
However, Dehkharghani would turn up the heat on the 2? river with a check-raise to 400,000, enough to put Hellmuth all-in, after Hellmuth bet 50,000.
This would send Hellmuth deep into the tank, taking close to six minutes before deciding to fold.
