Jacob Thibodeau:
Hellmuth's fishhooks were well ahead of the eights, and were further ahead on the flop. However, the two-outer spiked the turn to put him behind, and a blank came on the river to bust him in unfortunate circumstances early in the day.
The table said he was gracious and said "Good game," before making his exit, but there will be no "white magic" in the form of Hellmuth at this year's Main Event final table, as the 1989 World Series of Poker Main Event champion and bracelet record-holder is no longer in contention.
