Phil Hellmuth raised from the hijack and was three-bet by Albert Daher in the cutoff. It was folded back around to Hellmuth, who called.

Hellmuth proceeded to quickly check-call bets from Daher on the A♥9♣8♦ flop, Q♣ turn, and 3♥ river.

Hellmuth turned over 10♣10♦, which was good for the pot.

"I put him on something like that and he still called," Daher said in disbelief.

"That's why I have seventeen bracelets," Hellmuth replied.
