PokerNews Book Review: Poker Brat - Phil Hellmuth's Autobiography

“What’s more to know about Phil Hellmuth” I hear you ask. Good question.

Let me hit you with three things that I almost guarantee you didn’t know about the 15-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner.

  • A psychic once told him that he would become “rich and infamous throughout the world”
  • His sister Ann is a gold medal-winning Special Olympic speed skater.
  • Before embarking on a career as a professional poker player, he cleaned cages at the Primate Research Center. That’s right, the Poker Brat spent his college days cleaning up monkey shit.
