Hellmuth Limps with Tens and Stays Alive

Phil Hellmuth was down to about 11 big blinds and limped from early position with {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. Yevgeniy Timoshenko picked up two suited broadway cards in the {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} and limped behind him. Daniel Negreanu called from the small blind with the {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and Giovanni Safina checked in the big blind with the {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}.

The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and action checked to Hellmuth. He fired a very small bet for 15,000 -- the minimum he could make it. Timoshenko raised to 60,000 and Negreanu and Safina folded. Hellmuth folded as well, staying alive for the time being.

After the hand, Hellmuth went on a little tirade about how he feels Timoshenko just wants to play back at him all the time. "I'm happy with the way I am playing," he finished.

"We're happy with the way you're playing also," needled Timoshenko. Negreanu got a great laugh from that one.
