The Poker Brat!

If there is one thing that could be learned from Poker at least from the example of Phil Hellmuth, it is power. Power of money, power of achievement, power of living life on your own terms, basically the power within!

A college drop out, the success story of Phil began in 1988. And that story would make quite a fat book should we say?! Just a few chapters to mention: won the main event at the Seven card Hi/Low tournament being the youngest payer to do so, one of only three players in history to win three gold bracelets within a single year, a feat not unsurpassed of three consecutive WSOP (World Series of Poker) wins in three consecutive days, At age 42, he is already a member of the Poker Hall of Fame. Hellmuth currently holds the record for most championship bracelets won in the WSOP

Love him, hate him, cant ignore him! This former world champion is called the Poker Brat because of his brash attitude and ego. He is arguably the most successful tournament poker player in the history of the game.

Hellmuth has penned two books, "Play Poker Like the Pros" and the semi-autobiographical "Poker Brat." This brat has come a long long way from when he first defeated two time Poker world champion Johnny Chan at the WSOP main event as a skinny college kid at the age of 24 being the youngest player to do so then!

Hellmuth's style of play is extremely aggressive, showing off his strong hands very explicitly is believed to be his greatest weakness and strength in one breath by critics. To add to it he has a sharp ability to read tells.

A strong family person, Hellmuth respects players who set their priorities right in the game. He strives to find and bear in mind just the best in each person which he believes is simply the solution for the violence in people's mind these days. According to Hellmuth, one of the things that keeps him on his toes is that he remembers the hard times.

He aspires to take efforts that common people understand Poker as a game of opportunities which transcends beyond age, sex, religion, physical prowess or social standing! That everyone can win!
Spoken like a true winner!
