Hellmuth Doubles Through Dempsey

With the flop reading {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}, play checked to Phil Hellmuth who moved all in for his last 35,800 chips. His opponent, James Dempsey went into the tank for a long time as Hellmuth began the table talk. Amnon Flippi and Chau Giang were running in from other tables to grab a look as Hellmuth's tournament was at stake when Dempsey made the call.

Dempsey: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Hellmuth: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and river the {8-Clubs} and Hellmuth finds a much needed double up just before the break to around 85,000 as Dempsey slips to 108,000.
