World Series of Poker (WSOP)
Congratulations to Phil Hellmuth on his record-setting 12th WSOP bracelet. Only problem is Phil now needs to go buy some new hats. His old ones have the number 11 on the side. WSOP NEWS: HELLMUTH WINS 12THA RECORD SMASHING NIGHT AT THE 2012 WSOP

Great match, watched it via the WSOP live stream last night. Interesting side-note was his opponent Don Zewin finished 3rd in the 1989 Main event which Hellmuth won the breacelet. So soem history there between the two. Great to have been able to watch The final table livestreams are great.

I dont get why people dont like phil. I know hes an egomanic and has crazy rants but personally i find that really entertaining, and as much as people would like to disagree its clear he is a great player. Heres hoping for #13 soon

The majority of the people who dont like him, are really the younger generation online players. Most other poker enthusiasts and players, including recreational players, would never have the same veiw of him imo. A veiw which is obviously wrong, the guy knows how to play every game and does it well. Good for him for continuing to rack up bracelets in the face of all the negativity the past few years.

congrats to him, obviously a terribly hard achievement. It is to bad he doesn't get the recognition he deserves.
