Phil Hellmuth Gets Crushed In Poker Cash GamesPoker Pro Says He's On $320K Downswing |
|
The World Series of Poker can’t start soon enough for 14-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth. Hellmuth said on his social media this week that he’s having a losing year so far.
He also hasn’t cashed in a major tournament since October.
Hellmuth said that his regular home game in the Bay Area has been going terribly for him lately. He Tweeted that he had “personal record” losses in the game. He then followed up that performance a week later by losing $100,000 in a cash game in Florida.
Hellmuth’s regular Bay Area game often includes the likes of Chamath Palihapitiya, Zynga Founder Mark Pincus, David Sacks, Jason Calacanis and NBA player David Lee.
Altogether, he has lost roughly $320,000 in recent weeks. However, the downswing can definitely turn around quickly. He had seven cashes in WSOP events last year, including capturing his 14th bracelet. His second final table appearance in 2015 was good for nearly $700,000.
Sigh, just realized that I WAS up $200,000 in 2016, now I'm down $120,000. I lost $140,000 last Monday & $100,000 this Monday #RoughWeek

Horrible start to $100,000 buy in cash game. @BP22 has thrashed me: if it was a fight, they would call it. I have $10,800 left out of $100K
