Dvoress Puts Hellmuth in Tough Spot

Nick Becker

Niveau 14 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress raised to 50,000 in the cutoff, Phil Hellmuth flatted on the button, and Danny Tang defended in the big blind.

The flop came A♣J♥2♦, Tang checked, Dvoress bet 45,000, Hellmuth called, and Tang got out of the way.

On the 2♥ turn, Dvoress checked and Hellmuth bet 50,000. Dvoress then bet enough to put Hellmuth all in, who had 220,000 behind.

"I'm struggling to figure out what I can beat logically," said Hellmuth as he went into the tank.

After using multiple time bank cards, Hellmuth tossed his cards into the muck and Dvoress showed the 10♥.

"I haven't seen you show a card in five years Daniel," commented Tang.

"Phil's special," replied Dvoress as he dragged in the pot.
