Dvoress Puts Hellmuth in Tough Spot

Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress raised to 50,000 in the cutoff, Phil Hellmuth flatted on the button, and Danny Tang defended in the big blind.
The flop came A?J?2?, Tang checked, Dvoress bet 45,000, Hellmuth called, and Tang got out of the way.
On the 2? turn, Dvoress checked and Hellmuth bet 50,000. Dvoress then bet enough to put Hellmuth all in, who had 220,000 behind.
"I'm struggling to figure out what I can beat logically," said Hellmuth as he went into the tank.
After using multiple time bank cards, Hellmuth tossed his cards into the muck and Dvoress showed the 10?.
"I haven't seen you show a card in five years Daniel," commented Tang.
"Phil's special," replied Dvoress as he dragged in the pot.
