Default Favorite moment in televised poker?

Do you have any definite favorite among great poker moments? For me I'd say it's the time Gus Hansen ran over the table in the first installment of the Poker Superstars Tournament. I guess it doesn't really qualify as a "moment", but I'm just a Hansen fanboy

My favorite moments in television was when Mike the Mouth crying after busting out of the 2004 WSOP. Another favorite, was Phil Hellmuth’s tirade after getting beat by Annie Duke in the Tournament of Champions.

Here is Hellmuth going off again in the new Poker After Dark episode


Phil's own article about it afterwards. He does apologize a bit:
Poker Brat on Saturday Night

I have to say that my all-time favorite TV poker moment was the hand between Hellmuth and Matusow in the 2-7 game on High Stakes Poker. It was absolutely crazy. I am anything but a Hellmuth fanboy... but that was great.

Link to the video:
The hand starts at about 4:30

Actually, the whole portion of the show when they play 2-7 is fantastic.
