Phil Hellmuth was absolutely on fire as he captured his first PokerGO Major Title and first U.S. Poker Open title in U.S. Poker Open Event #5: $10,000 No-Limit Hold’em. Hellmuth eliminated five of his six opponents at the final table on his route to the $211,200 first place prize.
“It’s nice, you know after last year,” Hellmuth said about his first win in the PokerGO Studio. “Last year I had two seconds and a fourth in the U.S. Poker Open. I don’t play that many tournaments here, but if you look at like the last ten tournaments I played here at the studio, it’s pretty crazy. I think I have four final tables in ten events. Now people are gonna say that’s not true but it’s pretty easy to check.” (Read full story on PGT.com)
