The following was written before Phil won his 11th bracelet

As famous for his antics at the poker table and bad beat tirades as he is for his incredible record as a tournament player, Phil Hellmuth Jr. will always be known as the Poker Brat.

A living legend, Hellmuth joined Johnny Chan and Doyle Brunson in 2006 as one of only three poker players in history with ten WSOP bracelets to their names. But what separates Hellmuth from even this legendary pack is that all of his WSOP wins have come in Texas Hold’em events. He also holds the distinction of being the youngest man to win the WSOP Main Event after beating two-time defending champion Johnny Chan in 1989 at just 24 years old.

His days work cost him a $10,000 buy in for the event. He wins $637,254

The Final Hand

Andy Philacheck pushes with and Phil has to call with . Dominated he is, but the flop is . Phil is ahead and has to dodge two cards for his 11th bracelet. Turn is , River is . And its over.

I know I promised not to post untill the final event was over but this is big news in the poker world. The bracelets the winners get are gold covered with Diamonds. Last years Texas Hold'em main event winner Jamie Gold took home $12 million, I can't wait to see who wins this year. I'm rooting for Doyle or Johnny but I think Phil Ivey has a good chance as well.
