Default Re: Any Vegas locals know or play with Tommy Vu?

A hand I saw Tommy play against Phil Hellmuth deep in the WPT championship:

Tommy Vu raised to 80k in early position and Phil Hellmuth called behind him. Vu checked the K 7 3 flop to Hellmuth who said, "OK, I know you're gonna check-raise me," then bet 70k.

Vu asked, "Why so little?"

Hellmuth responded by caling a clock on Vu.

When the toournament director began counting down, Vu said, "I'm messing with the greatest, I have to think." He then min-raised Hellmuth to 140k.

Hellmuth asked how much it was and Vu replied, "Get an expert to count it." Hellmuth put in yet another min-raise of 70k.

Vu asked, "Are you testing me, Phil? Ok, I'm testing you back," and put an extra 70k in the pot for the four-bet min-raise war.



When Hellmuth mucked Vu dead-panned, "I used to play limit hold-em anyway."
