Phil Hellmuth, the record-holder, is done winning World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets, so says Shaun Deeb.
Deeb told WSOP reporter Jeff Platt on Monday that not only does he believe the "Poker Brat" won't one day capture his 18th bracelet, he also gave himself a solid chance of eventually surpassing Hellmuth.
