Phil Hellmuth Shatters World Record With 11 th WSOP Bracelet Win

Phil Hellmuth catapulted his way into the history books late last night with a record-breaking 11 th WSOP bracelet win at this year’s World Series of Poker.

“I’m on top of the world,” stated an ecstatic Phil Hellmuth after winning $637,254 and an 11 th bracelet. When pressed for a further quote, the UltimateBet.net pro’s sentiments were drowned out by the screaming crowd of fans and media celebrating his success.

Phil Hellmuth entered the final table of the $1,500 No Limit Hold’em event in second place with 1,482,000 in chips. He quickly took control of his opponents and claimed an early lead.

The game-ending heads-up hand saw Andy Philachack push all in for $500,000 with Ace/Ten suited (clubs). Hellmuth, with a massive chip lead, made the call with Ace/Three offsuit.

Hellmuth hit a Three of Diamonds on the flop, giving him a pair. The Four of Clubs and Nine of Hearts that accompanied it didn’t help his opponent. The Queen of Hearts on the turn failed to favor Philachack. And as the dealer turned over a Jack of Hearts on the river, history was made.

Hellmuth’s win makes him the only player to have won 11 WSOP bracelets. In 2006, Hellmuth captured his record-tying 10 th bracelet to share the top spot with Johnny Chan and Doyle Brunson. Today, the legendary UltimateBet.net pro leaves their impressive record in the dust.

But Hellmuth isn’t resting on his laurels. He’s now focused on breaking another record: His own. With the 2007 World Series of Poker still underway, a 12 th win is just a final table away.
