Wednesday, Jul 2, 2008 No 12th WSOP Bracelet for Hellmuth

Phil Hellmuth didn't get his 12th WSOP bracelet in the $1,500 HORSE event.

"The Poker Brat" was in the lead after both day 1 and day 2, but ended up in third place in Event 51.

It was Hellmuth's best performance so far at the 2008 WSOP, but the fact remains that he has only won Texas Hold'em events at the WSOP. But maybe the Brat is starting to heat up for the big one?

The HORSE tournament was won one by James Schaaf who gets the coveted bracelet and $256,412 in prize money.
