minraise like the pros
From the cardplayer.com live updates:
Tommy Vu raises to $100,000 preflop and is called by Phil Hellmuth. The flop comes K87 and that is when the fun begins. Vu checks and Hellmuth bets $70,000. Vu starts asking, "Why so little Phil?" and "Are you testing me?". After a few minutes, Hellmuth calls the clock on Vu. Tournament officials count down his time and with only a few seconds remaining, Vu raises $70,000 more. Hellmuth then starts talking to Vu, telling him that they might get it all in before the hand is over. After several more minutes, Hellmuth minimum raises another $70,000 more. Vu keeps telling Hellmuth "I think you are testing me, I have to raise to see if you are bluffing me..". Vu then proceeds to make another minimum raise of $70,000. Hellmuth looks at Vu and says, "I am going to bust you in the next half hour...".
Then Phil folds...
