Phil Hellmuth raised from the cutoff and the big blind called. The flop was {A-Hearts}

. The big blind checked, Hellmuth bet and the big blind called. The turn was the {3-Clubs}

and the big blind bet out.

"What, do you have fours? C'mon, gimme a hint" Hellmuth implored.

Hellmuth folded 9-9 face up while his opponent flashed J-10.

Then came the self-congratulatory speech on his laydown. The highlights:

"I just wait and wait and wait and eventually you'll give me your chips... I've won 11 World Championships... I'm the best hold'em player in the world..."

I think you know the rest.
