Rheem and Hellmuth Chop It Up
Level 12
Big O
Chino Rheem limped in from under the gun, and a player on the button shoved for 3,500. Phil Hellmuth called from the small blind, and Rheem called as well.
The flop came 7?5?8?. Rheem checked, Hellmuth moved all in for about 4,500, and Rheem called to put both Hellmuth and the player on the button at risk.
Button: A?A?9?8?4? 
Phil Hellmuth: A?10?5?3?2?
Chino Rheem: K?K?9?7?4?
Hellmuth had the nut-low while the button was ahead for the other half with a pair of aces. The J? turn changed nothing, but the K? river gave Rheem a set of kings to take the high while Hellmuth took the other half, and the player on the button was sent to the rail.
