"Phil Hellmuth: He's the Man!"

We caught up to the table to find Phil Hellmuth absolutely steam rolling his table. With bet out with {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} showing on fourth street and received one call. Hellmuth drew the {5-Clubs} on fifth street and his opponent's hand hit the muck faster than Hellmuth could even reach for chips.

Mike Matusow is also seated at Hellmuth's table, and busted into a chorus singing "Phil Hellmuth, he's the man! Phil Hellmuth, he's the man!"

"How ya runnin', Phil? asked Matusow. Hellmuth seemed in the zone and eager to block out Matusow's jabs as he sat motionless with his headphones on. "How ya runnin'?" continued Matusow.

"You've had five flushes, trips four times and you didn't lose one of those hands! Wait, you did lose on, to me and it was only for 1,800!" said Matusow to Hellmuth, who still sat as still as a statue.

Regardless of how well he is running, Hellmuth is arguably the biggest stack in the room right now and is certainly taking control of his table.
