I saw a re-run of this last week. The FW WPT tourney and the hand in question is the one that Mike Sexton said it looked like Hellmuth's pants were on fire .

Hellmuth had J9o and Corkins J7o and Hellmuth completed from the SB and they took a flop. The flop was 9xx and Hellmuth lead out with a bet. Corkins raised with nothing and Hellmuth called.

The Turn was a 7 and it went check, check. I don't want to debate whether Hellmuth should or should not have bet here. The River was another 7 and Hellmuth bet and of course Corkins raised and Hellmuth paid him off and jumped up "like his pants were on fire" when he saw he lost to running 7's.

The point of my post is that I don't think Hellmuth should bet this River. He should check and call as his bet has no expectation of getting paid off if he has the best hand. Apologies if this has already been discussed.
