Action was picked up between the small blind Jason Mercier and the big blind Phil Hellmuth, with Hellmuth all in and at risk for 36,500.
Both players chose to draw one card.
After the players drew, Mercier announced, "paint," as Hellmuth turned over a four to make 10x9x4x3x2x. When Mercier flipped over a king, it gave the pot to Hellmuth for the double up.
