Hellmuth said he had an overpair, and Koon instantly called out his pocket tens.

The straddle was back off for this hand, when Daniels opened to $2,200 second to act with and Koon picked up on his left. That was cause for a reraise to $8,000, which was met by a four-bet to $29,000 when action folded back to Daniels.

'Would you even shove aces here?' he asked as he stretched. 'I guess you'd need ace of spades, ace, right? Even that's gettin kinda thin.

'You don't even shove ace of spades, king I don't think. I guess you could just have top set.'

He continued:

'It's kind of a crazy spot, man. I want to believe you. You've gotta have a big f****** hand here. Like a big f****** hand. I mean do you even have top set? You want me to call you with worse, right? Pretty sick... I really wanna believe you, I really do.'

Finally, he slammed in a few chips but mucked to the top set, and Daniels dragged a $425K pot.
