For his part, UB’s Hellmuth seemed rather calm about being ousted from the $10,000 buy-in tournament, Tweeting, “Out! Still feel calm (not freaking out); did autographs + pics 4 45 mins str8 after busting. 2010 WSOP: played great, cards were not great.” Hellmuth completed the 2010 WSOP with four UB Referral Code cashes and one final table for a total haul of $110,000.

While Sebok break Twitpic after Twitpic of the sea of poker media and fans bearing 110-degree heat to watch Hellmuth enter, tournament reporter B.J. Nemeth intently guessed, “I’d bet that >50% of the media reports on Hellmuth’s entrance are negative or derisive in tone. What more needs to be said?” in the meantime, Annie Duke, who also began her Main Event journey on Day 1C, noted, “Damn. I think I am in the incorrect room for Phil Hellmuth’s entrance. Bad beat.”

Perhaps the best UB Bonus Code rundown of the scene, appropriately, went to the always insightful Sebok, who briefly Twittered: “Holy effing eff. Phil Hellmuth entrance. Wow. Just wow.”
