Buchanan Finishes Off Hellmuth
Level 15
: 3,000/6,000, 0 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
Phil Hellmuth was all in for his last 1,700 from the small blind and up against big blind Shawn Buchanan.
Phil Hellmuth: 
Shawn Buchanan: 
The board ran out 
and Buchanan made a pair of sixes to win the pot and eliminate Hellmuth.
A few hands earlier, Hellmuth had lost a big pot to Josh Arieh, then berated the reigning Player of the Year to the extent that Arieh called the floor over to give Hellmuth a warning.
After his bustout, Hellmuth went up to Arieh and apologized. "I'm going to throw up in the other room," Hellmuth said as he also shook the hand of Buchanan.
