He is represent emotional poker player, lol. I just one player at video, him and I always laugh when saw he mumbling. Blame his opponent who play crap card against his good card and he lost. But his bracelet approved he is very good player.

He can be annoying indeed, some times, but he is less annoying than some others. Besides that, he is a very good player with many wins, and a very good profit, from playing poker and poker only

i just googled to see the players that have the most bracelets, in poker and phil helmuth is by far the first, with phil ivey, doyle brunson and johnny chan, following with 10 bracelets each. On fifth place is john mosh with 9 bracelets. Wont be easy for someone else to reach him.

It is true, that it is very difficult to win these bracelets but Phil Helmuth has 11 bracelets won when poker was not so popular. After poker has exploded ( 2007 i think ) around the world he also managed to win only 4 bracelets in 11 years. Doyle Brunson won his last bracelet in 2005, Johnny Chan last bracelet 2005, Phil Ivey 5 before and 5 after poker explode. It's very hard to win in the last 11 years because there are many good players who have learned the game very well.

My most sincere congratulations to Phil Hellmuth on winning the $5,000 buy-in event #71 and capturing his fifteenth WSOP gold bracelet. I am looking forward to watching the final table replays and the heads-up battle between Phil Hellmuth and Steven Wolansky.

Of course, Phil Hellmuth it's worth winning a new bracelet, to add it to his other bracelets. Is a great player with many successes and now his bracelets are many, 15 in total. I do not understand why he did not teach his wife poker. It would be good if she also played poker successfully. It would have been an enviable couple or maybe not. Maybe his wife has no talent at poker.
