Not quite.

Sheikhan raised preflop to 2400 (blinds were 400/800 I think), Hellmuth called in the SB, Laak folded his BB. Flop came giving Hellmuth bottom pair and Sheikhan two over, Hellmuth lead out for like 40% pot, Sheikhan raised it 5k to 7k, Hellmuth quickly called and then check folded the turn after Sheikhan shoved.

Thanks. I had a feeling I didn't get it quite right. Hellmuth's smooth call on the post flop raise was ridiculous. He even admitted after that hand that he doesn't know how to play this format and I believe him. What I don't understand is why he doesn't get some help from his poker buddies since this is his 5th or 6th PAD. Either his ego is too big to admit it or he really is a pompous ass and has no friends who he trusts to give him good advice.
