Phil Hellmuth started to get a little short and found himself calling a Ted Forrest bet on fifth street moments ago.

Forrest: / /
Hellmuth took the lead on sixth street and bet out. Forrest called, but joined Hellmuth in checking seventh. Hellmuth could claim only the kings he had showing and it appeared Forrest missed a chance at a low as he mucked and handed Hellmuth the pot.
Wood brought it in, Matusow completed, and the action folded back to Wood, who called. Wood checked with his pair of deuces on fourth street, Matusow bet, and Wood called.
Both players checked on fifth, and Wood led out on sixth. Matusow called. Wood slowed down again, check-calling a bet on seventh street, then mucked when Matusow announced two pair and showed down for just that.
Prior to Matusow scooping the pot, Huck Seed, who had just joined the table, won three straight pots to chip up to 81,000.

John Juanda got really short and got it in on third street showing just an ace.
Proving it's not easy to beat a five-time WSOP bracelet winner, Juanda managed to make a pair of aces by the time it was all said and done and doubled up when his opponent couldn't beat it or show a low.
After taking a few hits, Ivey is climbing back up to the average stack, thanks to a made flush in a three-handed scoop.
Ivey and Glantz both checked to a third player on fifth street, and he tossed out a bet. The two players called. The trio all checked on sixth, and Glantz led out on seventh. The player in the middle called, Ivey raised, and Glantz begrudgingly folded.
The player in the middle found a call, and he mucked when Ivey showed for a flush.
Todd Brunson is sitting with no less than two cups of ice, two waters, a massive Big Gulp-style soda and a rather large Starbucks coffee in front of him.
"Can you get a penalty for having too many drinks at the table?" he asked with a wry smile.
Eli Elezra: / /
Jonathan Duhamel: / /
Opponent: / /
The action checked to Duhamel on fifth street, and he bet. Both of his opponents called, and the player with an ace showing led out on sixth. Elezra raised, leaving a single grey T100 chip behind, and both Duhamel and the bettor called.
Elezra committed his last 100 on seventh, both players called, and he showed for kings and nines. The third player revealed for a low, and Duhamel mucked.
The 2013 bracelet winner is still short, but Elezra is still kicking with 12,600 chips.
