In a limped pot blind on blind Phil Hellmuth checked to Aleksey Filatov who bet 50,000. Hellmuth then check-raised pot to 300,000, motioning with all of chips forward.

"You want to get it all in?" said Hellmuth.

Filatov thought on his decision before folding.

"I had ace-four-five and a pair and a six," said Hellmuth.

"I still had outs to scoop," replied Filatov.

Big O

Phil Hellmuth kicked things off with a limp from the hijack. Aleksey Filatov and Dylan Lambe did the same from the cutoff and button before Tim Seidensticker completed from the small blind. Joshua Adcock checked his option in the big blind to set up the family pot.

Action checked to Filatov, who bet 250,000 on the K♣J♦3♥ flop. Seidensticker was the only caller.

Seidensticker then check-called another pot-sized bet (800,000) on the 7♣ turn.

Seidensticker had 220,000 behind and jammed on the 10♥ river, which frustrated Filatov.

He commented how sick the spot was but ultimately he was getting to good of a price and he called.

Seidensticker had Broadway with his A♦Q♥10♠3♣2♠ for the nuts. Filatov tabled his hand with AxAx being his high, the rest of the cards then went into the muck.

Action folded around to Hellmuth in the small blind and he raised.

"I'll take just take this down preflop," said Hellmuth over to Filatov in the big blind.

"I'm just going to play my hand Phil," responded Filatov who called "no matter what you say."

The flop rolled out 2♣7♥J♠ and Filatov called the bet from Hellmuth.

Hellmuth bet a second time on the turn A♣ and once more Filatov called. Both players checked the river 4♥.

"Aces and jacks with a live six," said Hellmuth turning over A♥K♠J♣6♦. Filatov nodded, tossing his hand into the muck and a look of glee washed over the 18-time bracelet winner's face.
