Kelsall Chips Up
Niveau 17
: 6,000/12,000, 18,000 ante
Cary Katz opened to 24,000 in middle position, Phil Hellmuth called in the hijack, and Andrew Kelsall raised to 114,000 on the button. Katz called and Hellmuth went into the tank.
Hellmuth pondered his decision and even laughed at the prospect of folding, before he showed table-neighbor Dan Shak his hand and let him know this was how to play poker as he sent his cards into the muck.
Katz drew one and Kelsall stood pat.
Both players checked post-draw and Kelsall tabled 
for the winning hand, sending Hellmuth into a classic mini-tirade as he jumped out of his seat in disbelief and claimed to have folded 
, while the audience on the rail enjoyed the show and Kelsall took the pot.
