    Hellmuth wins 12th WSOP bracelet

    in the $2500 Razz event...like him or hate him the guy is a great tournament poker player...last year he finished 2nd in 3 events at the WSOP looking for his 12th bracelet, I'm happy for him.

    At the same time Hellmuth was heads up for the bracelet, so was Phil Ivey in the 10k Pot limit Hold em event, but he finished 2nd to Andy frankenberger.

    I don't hate on Hellmuth either. Ya, he's a baby some of the time, but that seems like show. A lot of people say he's a good guy off the felt, and that he helps out a lot of players that go broke. The dude can play.

    I have to say that on some of the TV cash games Hellmuth gets majoryly fukked. Just some of the worst bad beats I have ever seen.

    He can be a douche at the tables but you can't hate on his tournament game...He is horrible at cash games

    not sure I was watching too for a bit before I passed out...pretty cool how both Hellmuth and Ivey were heads up in separate events at the same time

    Anyone hear how the cash games are doing at this WSOP? Sometimes you hear some good stories.

    cool, I definitely root for him because we have a similar playing style and I like when he bitches.

    Plus, I always hated how Chan and Brunson had so many bracelets but won them when the playing field was less than 100 players, and Phil has won quite a few in the last few years.

    He has the patience of a tree stump a solid weapon in poker....However when you have 12 bracelets I think you are entitled to come to the table and act however the hell you want to act. I've seen a lot worse here for points at least when he is crying about something it probably has about 6 0's behind it with 5 0's to even get into it.

    Coming out of the break we have to listen to Cory Zeidman in the booth.

    Hellmuth had some pretty good mini melt downs

    Monnette would be betting his flush draws and gut shot and get there when Hellmuth had big made hands. After the hand he would stand up in bewilderment holding his cards with the blank stare at them while telling Monnette how bad he is.
