Hellmuth Flops a Set
Level 16
Pot-Limit Omaha
After limps from Daniel Alaei under the gun, Marco Johnson in the hijack, and Phil Hellmuth in the small blind, John Monnette checked his big blind.
The quartet of stars saw a flop of 3?10?A? and action checked to Alaei who bet 25,000. Only Hellmuth called to see the K? on the turn.
Before the card was dealt though, Hellmuth checked dark and Alaei then checked back.
Hellmuth also checked the J? river, as did Alaei, with Hellmuth then showing Q?3?3?2? for a flopped set of threes, which was good enough to earn a small but necessary pot.
