Default Re: Phil Hellmuth -- Genius or completely oblivious ?

Not viewing it, it doesn't look like that bad of a fold. Consider the Jesus hand against Friedman when he had quads and bet in a similar fashion, giving his opponent opportunities to make mistakes by calling against his powerhouse hand.

All Jesus needs is a queen to be well ahead. Hellmuth can't be sure he is ahead and will expect a bigger bet into him on the river. He is avoiding traps.
