Season 2 of Hellmuth’s Home Game, presented by Poker Night in America and sponsored by BetRivers, continues to air Monday nights on CBS Sports. Filmed at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nevada, the show’s cash game action is driven entirely by table talk rather than commentary, with Phil Hellmuth joined by a rotating cast of poker pros.
Episode 4 picked up where the previous week left off, played at $25/$50 blinds with a $50 big blind ante. Stanley Tang had a strong showing, winning multiple sizable pots throughout the session.
In one key hand, Tang rivered a straight against Rampage’s top pair that improved to trips on the river. Rampage fired $25,000, but Tang made the call to scoop a pot worth $87,225.
Tang also took down a $28,375 pot off Charlie Hook after flopping a full house with pocket nines and checking the hand down before springing a river check-raise for $10,000, which Hook reluctantly called.
Elsewhere, Kelly Lucas claimed a $53,150 pot with a flopped set of sevens, getting all-in on the turn against Rampage’s straight flush draw and holding after declining to run it twice, a decision she later called “completely buried” territory for her opponent.
The episode closed with a hand between Hellmuth and Dan “Jungleman” Cates, who rivered a straight with ace-eight and value-bet $6,000 into Hellmuth’s top pair kings, collecting a $21,575 pot while laughing at his opponent’s misfortune.
