so he manage to win his 17th bracelet, wow what a score for him and above that he got over 800 K dollars for this win! he just knew how to collect this bracelets on wsop! he was better then 641 players on this tournament with big buy in of 10000 dollars! who know where is end for him, he will play for years wsop for sure and maybe he will get another one this year! congratulations to phil and goodl luck on rest of wsop!
There were some really good names among the final table players so this bracelet is not too shabby to have after all. I used to make fun of Phil and his passive-agressive outbursts during his key moments which is well documented here on this forum but nevertheless congrats, he truly deserved this one...

Congratulations to this great poker player, Phil Hellmuth is one of those poker players that is never right, many who have seen him have commented that he was very frustrated in the tournament because things were not going well, now he has won it, he himself recognizes it and forgets about that event, sometimes that happens for something ....

this player has a special talent, but he is also recalcitrant or offended when he has his frustrations or when a player makes him lose a mine in a more shameful way. He has a huge talent, but he must learn to have permanent respect.

he is a winning player, but sometimes he gets very frustrated and loses his temper, he should improve his moods in the games in which he participates, if he does better he will have better results in his life as a player.

this player is very good, he has won some great tournaments, but as every player sometimes has his weakness, he has to know how to control himself so he can show his best version in front of this.

you are right, he has had that for years, he should put a stop to take care of his health and also that will make him have better results in his game, now he has already won his 17th bracelet, surely this will not prevent him from continuing to accumulate bracelets.

He is a player who is always fighting for the titles he plays, he comes to win and take the bracelet, that makes him always competing at the highest level, a great example for everyone.

I like this strong player, who destroyed many professional players in his career. Does anyone know what seat he occupied in the main event? I was curious what position he had because he would definitely want to win at the strongest WSOP tournament. Maybe he will be lucky in the coming years.

Congratulations to him on this great achievement. 17 gold wsop bracelets is a record very hard to beat , the second has 10 bracelets . I think he will hold this record for ever lol . And now he extends this lead even more , harder for the competitors .
