Phil Hellmuth and Linda Ryke-Drucker capped the action pre-flop. The flop was {Q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and they capped it again. The turn was the {10-Diamonds}. Drucker bet and Hellmuth called. The river was the {3-Clubs}. Drucker checked and Hellmuth checked behind. Drucker showed {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for top set and Hellmuth slammed his {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} on the table.

Immediately after the hand "Crazy Mike" Thorpe ran over to the table and asked "Hey, are you Phil Hellmuth? Can I shake your hand?" Fuming, Hellmuth called for the floor.

"I lose a huge pot and I have to deal with this guy coming over?" Hellmuth roared. Thorpe was escorted back to his table and reprimanded while Hellmuth was left to steam.
