Here We Go, Romanovskyi Ignites the Hellmuth Fireworks

Action folded to Roman Romanovskyi in the hijack seat and he raised to 2,000. Play then folded two seats over to 12-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth on the button and he said, "My man, my man, my man, I feel like I'm supposed to min-raise you," before tossing out 4,000. Play then folded back to Romanovskyi, and he quickly called.

The flop was {K-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} , and Romanovskyi checked to Hellmuth. Hellmuth check-raised to 7,700. "Call!" snapped Hellmuth as soon as Romanovskyi's bet crossed the line. The whole table burst out in laughter when this happened.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} , and Romanovskyi took some time to think. He then fired 9,800, which prompted some more chatter from Hellmuth.

"As Daniel always says, I have a bad feeling about this one," Hellmuth said, hinting at Daniel Negreanu. "I think he has a set of fours, Daniel." Hellmuth then called.

The river completed the board with the {9-Diamonds} and Romanovskyi took his time before betting 16,800 with a tall stack of chips. Immediately, Hellmuth's glasses came off. "How much is it?" he asked. "He has five-six maybe? This is so sick."

Only a couple seconds passed, and then Hellmuth called. When he did, Romanovskyi tabled the {K-Spades} {9-Spades} for a rivered two pair and it was blastoff time as Hellmuth shot up from his chair like a rocket.

"F***ing I got the guy that's going to give away all his chips! Such a horrible player! He's the one that's going to give them all away!" he ranted.

Everyone laughed particularly loud at the comment about Romanovskyi being "the one" as Hellmuth continued his ranting.

"I mean, is this real? I fly all the way here for some monkey to try and give me all his chips? What is this?" continued Hellmuth.

The table was laughing hysterically while Hellmuth kept on with his complaining. He flashed his hand to John Monnette, but it was never revealed. The table asked Monnette to tell, but all Monnette said was that Hellmuth did have Romanovskyi beat until the river.

Hellmuth paced back and forth behind the table for a bit before coming back and sitting down. He went on about how bad Romanovskyi is playing for a bit longer before Romanovskyi tried to ask him a question.

"You don't deserve to ask me a question about poker," responded Hellmuth. The table burst out in laughter again.

The table then began commenting how well Romanovskyi has been runnning and playing, and that if he keeps it up, he'll probably go on to win. Hellmuth objected.

"How can he win? He has to play another 10-handed table and he'll just donk it off there!" he said.
