Sherkhan Farnood has set Phill Hellmuth a-ranting. He won a monster stud pot from him, resulting in Farnood now shifting up to the heady heights of 120,000, while Hellmuth is down to around 70,000. "Split sevens against my rolled up eights?" cries Hellmuth. "You're the worst player I've ever seen. It doesn't matter though, I'm going to get all those chips back off you." Said a very jovial Farnood, "I would be glad to give these chips back to you."
Luckily Padraig Parkinson is on hand to shout some advice from the rail: "Don't get upset now, Phil, you're the man. Phil! Relax! You're my f***ing hero."
