Hellmuth's Prediction Comes True
"This worked out so well last time," Phil Hellmuth said sarcastically as he opened to 250,000 under the gun. Fabian Niederreiter then three-bet to 540,000 in the cutoff and Hellmuth tossed A♠10♠ into the muck.
"I have a feeling we're going to get it all in soon. Then I'll only have five million. Nobody has patience," Hellmuth said after the hand.
The next hand, Wookuk Lee raised to 250,000 on the button and Hellmuth called in the big blind.
The flop came 7♠Q♥K♠ and Lee continued for 150,000. Hellmuth then raised to 500,000, Lee moved all in, and Hellmuth instantly splashed in his last 1,600,000.
Phil Hellmuth: K♦3♦ 
Wookuk Lee: Q♠9♠
Hellmuth was ahead with his pair of kings against Lee's queens. The rest of the board ran out 7♦A♣ and Hellmuth doubled up.
"Now I need to get it all in against you," Hellmuth told Niederreiter.
