Walroos intoxicated knocking chips over at 6handed NLHE

Round 10 has arrived already! And it's getting a little crazy in here as the H.O.R.S.E. tournament is coming close to heads-up, and Omaha Hi-Lo has wrapped up.
Thomas Wahlroos, who was apparently a bit drunk, just came in for a visit on a break from the Stud tournament in the tent, and knocked over a bunch of players' chips. We are also currently on a break, as players need to regain their guns.

Strange Developments
Thomas Wahlroos, who's apparently a bit intoxicated, walked up to Roland de Wolfe's table and knocked his chips all over the place. Afterwards, he then snuck up behind Phil Hellmuth and proceeded to knock HIS chips everywhere, only Phil was in the middle of a hand! More to come . . . stay with us!



More On "Thomfoolery"
When we first reported on Thomas Walroos' zany escapades, we failed to mention he was wearing a black Poker News Live Update Team t-shirt as he committed the double hit-n-run. Earlier in the day, Poker News' John Caldwell was approached about lending an extra t-shirt to Wahlroos, who had ruined his own shirt earlier in the day. Caldwell obliged, unaware that Wahlroos would end up getting drunk a few hours later, and Wahlroos has been wearing it since.

Phil "The Poker Brat" Hellmuth got up to talk to the floorperson about the incident with Thomas Wahlroos, leaving his chip stack alone and violated. (Bodog Beat Image)
We don't mean to sound like we're stalking Phil Hellmuth, this stuff just keeps happening right in front of us. This incident happened during the $5,000 No Limit Hold'em Six-Handed event again, and involved Finnish poker pro Thomas Wahlroos, son of one of the wealthiest people in Finland.
Just after Hellmuth won a huge pot in which he called an 80k all-in bet with pocket aces and watched them hold up against his opponents pocket sixes, he went walking around the tournament area looking for someone to tell that he was most likely the new chip leader. He found Thomas Wahlroos.
An obviously intoxicated Wahlroos, who was apparently taking a break from the $1,000 Seven Card Stud Hi Lo event, eagerly listened to Hellmuth tell him about the size of his stack. At the end of the story he blurted with feigned incredulity, "chip leader? No way. Let me see." He then proceeded to follow Phil to his seat, and upon arrival swept the patiently and lovingly built chip stack (trust us, we watched him) into a jumbled heap of colors. A truly bratty thing to do, even if to another "brat".
Wahlroos proceeded to crack (mainly himself) up, while several onlookers smirked and others just stared at the unfolding scene. Phil yelled for the floor, calling for Thomas to be escorted from the building. One floorperson approached the still-cackling Thomas and asked him to go and apologize to Phil, followed by another one who just said, "get him out of here." We'll have to assume that Thomas went back to the poker tent and the Stud event because we stuck around to watch the Phil show.
