Yu Gets The Hellmuth Sign of Approval
Level 20
: 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Ben Yu completed with the 
showing and Jesse Martin called with the 
up. On fourth street Yu caught the 
and Martin folded right when Yu bet.
"I got'em! I got'em! I got'em!" Yu said as he waved his aces in the air while making this shape: /\ with his fingers, reenacting the epic hand between Beth Shak, Phil Hellmuth and Brett Richey during the 2007 WSOP.
"The kid's just dancing, he won three pots in a row," Hellmuth said.
"I was doing the thing Beth Shak did at that final table," Yu responded.
"Dang it, that's just so good! You're so clever," Hellmuth said, as he realized what was going on.
Hellmuth gave Yu a fist bump, as a sign of approval, and a very giddy Yu stacked his newly won chips.
