Aces Are not Good for Hellmuth
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
The button player opened to 10,000 and Phil Hellmuth raised it to 40,000 from the blinds. The initial player called and the flop fell 
. Both players checked.
Things heated on the turn 
after Hellmuth check-raised all in after his opponent bet 50,000. The latter ended up calling for a stack of 193,500 to create the following showdown:
Phil Hellmuth: 
His opponent: 
Hellmuth stood up from his chair, seeing two pair in his opponent's hand and his pocket aces cracked. The river 
didn't change anything and Hellmuth was left with 33,000 after that hand. The owner of 15 WSOP bracelets busted a few minutes later.
