The Poker Brat Finally Wins a Shootout

Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth

Phil Hellmuth held a huge lead over Frederic Casalta and has been chipping down the Frenchman all level. It finally came to a head when Casalta got his last few thousand in preflop with {7-Hearts}{5-Spades} against the {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} of Hellmuth. The board ran out a clean {J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Hellmuth punched his ticket to Day 2; what's more, because his table had the most players, he'll take a stack of 71,775 to the final 20—enough to make him the chip leader.

"This is the first shootout I've ever won at the World Series," Hellmuth told Tournament Director Jack Effel with glee.
