Phil Hellmuth just copped a bit of back luck in a pair of hands that sent him to the rail midway through the fourth level of play and the crowd that had gathered around the table to watch him play heckled him all the way out the door.

The first hand did the heavy damage, as Phil's pocket aces were cracked by an opponent's turned two pair, leaving him with 725 in chips.

A few minutes later, Phil got it in good holding a pocket pair of tens against an opponent's {A-Spades} {10-Diamonds}, but an ace on the river sent the Poker Brat packing.
