Going Deep with "The Poker Brat"

Poker Central’s Drea Renee puts Phil Hellmuth in the massage chair and attempts to put The Poker Brat under pressure. Easier said than done for the 14-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner, who stays calm at the table, under the bright lights of final tables and while rubbing elbows with some of the world’s biggest celebrities.

Hellmuth runs through his previous night, which included some high stakes poker with Mike “The Mouth” Matusow and Todd Brunson, before hitting the club with Poker Central Charity Shootout participants Chuck Liddell and Tony Hawk. Hellmuth also talks about his “mellow” personality off the felt, while also telling the story about how “The Poker Brat” came to be.

From stories about his cameo appearance on the Showtime hit Billions and, figuratively speaking, going punch for punch with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, Hellmuth knows how to captivate an audience, even from a massage chair.
