Hellmuth recievs the bracelet and actually shuts up!!We had a feeling it might happen didn’t we ?

Phil Hellmuth has won Event #15 ($1500 No Limit Hold ‘em) this afternoon taking his total number of WSOP bracelets to a record breaking 11.

The “poker brat” that nearly everyone loves to hate seemed a little overcome by the moment - with none of his usual brashness as he accepted the bracelet from fellow legends Doyle Brunson and Johnny Chan.

Hellmuth won the final hand with an A-3, beating an A-10 held by Andy Philacheck win he flopped a 3 that held up through the turn and river - but it was the pressure of the 6-1 chip lead that had forced the move from Philacheck.

Love him or hate him - he’s one hell of a player …

Congratulations Phil !

* NEW : VIDEO INTERVIEW *
In response to many requests - we’ve found a page with a video interview of Phil after his win … but it’s a proprietary format so it takes a while to load.

(look for Event #15 videos if it gets bumped off the first page)

Stumble it!
