Lyric Duveyoung Eliminates Johnny Chan

Lyric Duveyoung has personally reduced the star power of Table #13. After seeing a flop of {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} {9-Hearts} and the turn of {3-Diamonds} Johnny Chan bet 5,000 and Duveyoung moved all in. Chan called and showed {A-Spades} {5-Spades}, while Duveyoung rolled over {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}. The {K-Hearts} fell on the river and Chan was eliminated.

Perhaps still stinging from the previous hand he lost to Duveyoung, Phil Hellmuth couldn't help from chiming in. "That's what happens when a crazy guy gets hot," he said, "but then they bust out quickly."

He went on to say, "My time costs a lot of money, son. It's 50,000 a date. You have to pay me, then I spank you."
