Most people with an interest in poker will know Phil Hellmuth. One of Poker's most well known names and still young enough to set an amazing amount of records at the WSOP (He is already number 1 for most Tournament cashes)and other tournaments. He is criticised by his fellow pros for being a 'one trick pony' but that is probably a bit unfair with some recent performances at the HORSE events at the WSOP.
