Mount Hellmuth Threatening to Erupt
We passed by Phil Hellmuth's table hoping to catch a glimpse of his infamous Poker Brat persona, and the 11-time bracelet winner did not disappoint. After Hellmuth limped into the pot from under-the-gun, an older gentleman raised to 1,500 and Hellmuth came along for the ride.
The flop fell 
and Hellmuth tapped the table, as did his opponent. After the 
arrived on the turn, Hellmuth continued his slowplay and checked once again. This time, his opponent opted for a bet of 1,500 and Hellmuth aggressively tossed his chips into the middle for a call.
The river fell 
and Hellmuth hit the table hard for a check. His opponent was done betting as well and revealed his 
for top pair, top kicker. Hellmuth stood up and peered across the table to see what he was up against, and when the news hit him, it hit him hard.
The Poker Brat winced as he tossed his cards angrily in the muck, talking to himself and pacing around the table. The mass of railbirds on hand to watch TV's most well-known player got their money's worth, taking pictures and whispering to each other as Hellmuth retook his seat.
