Phil Hellmuth is famous for winning 14 WSOP bracelets so far and has over $22 million in live tournament earnings under his belt, but one Uber driver thinks he's obnoxious and cheap.

I wonder how much truth there is to this story and, if he did not tip the driver, he should be ashamed of himself. With all that money he has, a nice tip would have gone a long way

Who knows what happened. She may even got a small tip considered it as no tip I really dont understand people always expecting a tip from someone, just because they are rich... But she took the picture though.

we all know this phil hellmuth offend players at tables or cry to his wife when something does not like it. I'm not surprised that he left garbage in that uber car. This is his character... If he had a good character, he would not leave garbage in the car. He is probably believed to be a star too much and does not make an effort to gather garbage. Shame on you phil

When I am in a country where a gratuity is customary, I almost always tip discreetly for services rendered in a restaurant, bar, strip club, salon, massage parlor, motel/hotel, etc. (There is no custom of tipping in Japan.)

Well, she should have known that these people like many things but selfies probably ain't one of them. So honestly this time I am with Hellmuth who was kind of thinking that allowing the girl taking the photo and having 'bragging rights' after is enough of a gratuity itself.
