Es sollte einfach nicht sein!
Im 2.500 Dollar Mixed Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better Event sorgte Poker-Legende Phil Hellmuth für Aufsehen. Als Führender ging er an den Final-Tisch, machte Jagd auf sein insgesamt 18(!) Gold-Armband. Eigentlich lief alles perfekt an diesem Dienstagabend – doch auf einmal riss die Glückssträhne…
Riesen-Traum von Zocker-Legende geplatzt
Knackpunkt: Als noch drei Spieler übrig waren, verliert Hellmuth einen Riesen-Pot gegen den späteren Gewinner Jason Daly. Straße über Straße – richtig brutal für den wohl größten World-Series-of-Poker-Spieler aller Zeiten. Danach ging es fix. Hellmuth konnte nicht mehr zurückkommen, musste sich mit Platz 3 und 97.000 Euro zufriedengeben. Dabei spielt die Kohle eine nebensächliche Rolle…
Wie geht das denn?: Muskelfaserriss beim Münzwurf
Hellmuth ist mit 17. Bracelets mit Abstand der erfolgreichste WSOP-Zocker. Keiner kann ihm nur annähernd in dieser Bilanz das Wasser reichen. Phil Ivey, der auch Legenden-Status hat, liegt mit 11. Siegen auf Platz Zwei. Das zeigt, was Hellmuth in seiner Karriere schon alles erreicht hat. Dass es mit Armband Nummer 18 nicht geklappt hat, wird ihn sicherlich richtig wurmen.
Hellmuth hat in seiner Poker-Karriere alles erreicht, ist in der Hall of Fame und konnte sogar schon das prestigeträchtige Main Event gewinnen. Seit mittlerweile 40 Jahren ist er im Poker-Zirkus dabei. ABER: Zuletzt wurde es auch ein wenig unruhig um ihn, weil er ankündigte, nicht das Main Event bei der WSOP spielen zu wollen. Es wäre ein Schock für die Poker-Fans gewesen. Zum Start der Serie gab er jedoch bekannt, dass er antreten werde. Puh…
[–>Bitter: Auch ein Deutscher saß neben Hellmuth im Finale am Tisch. Tobias Hausen war nach dem 2. Tag Chipleader, hatte somit eine sehr gute Ausgangslage. Nachdem er mehrfach kurz vorm Ausscheiden war, schaffte er noch einen respektablen 4. Platz. Dafür kassierte er 67.000 Euro.
Übrigens: Vom 15. bis 29. Juni geht es auch auf der Poker-Plattform von GGPoker wieder hoch her. Das „Micro Festival“ mit einem garantierten von 10 Mio. Dollar wird für jede Menge Action an den Online-Tischen sorgen. Nach dem World Festival, das nächste Knaller-Event.

2025-26 Fantasy Basketball: 3 guards to fade in High Score
As the 2025-26 NBA season tips off, fantasy basketball managers are fine-tuning their draft strategies, looking for hidden gems and avoiding potential pitfalls.

Bengals to start Joe Flacco in Week 6 just days after trading for veteran QB
After 18 years in the NFL, quarterback Joe Flacco knows how to get ready for a game quickly. At least, that's what the Cincinnati Bengals are hoping. Despite acquiring Flacco on Tuesday, Bengals head coach Zac Taylor announced the newly-acquired quarterback will start for the team in Week 6.Taylor made the move official Wednesday, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.While it's not necessarily surprising Flacco will start for the Bengals, pushing him into a starting role so soon does come as a shock. Flacco will only have a few days to learn the team's entire offense and play calls before taking on Micah Parsons and the Green Bay Packers.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThis story will be updated.

Fantasy Football Week 5 Target Trends: Puka Nacua continues record-breaking pace
Once a week during the NFL season, I dig into the pass-game data and try to figure out what trends matter at wide receiver, tight end and running back. Let’s open up the spreadsheets and see what we find.Puka Nacua, WR, RamsThe amazing Nacua is currently on pace for 210 targets, 176 catches, 1,999 yards and 11 receiving touchdowns (he also had another score on the ground). The true measure of offensive greatness is being able to dominate even when the opponent knows what’s coming. Sure, we’d like more touchdowns, but if Nacua hits the other statistical paces we listed, they would all be new NFL records.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThis is basically a reboot of the monster season Cooper Kupp posted in 2021, another Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay production. The narrow usage tree is alive and well in Los Angeles. If we […]
Only Taylor rematch can tempt Jonas to fight on
The only fight that could lure Natasha Jonas back to boxing is a rematch with Irish superstar Katie Taylor.Jonas first met Taylor in a memorable Olympic quarter-final at London 2012. Taylor prevailed in three-round thriller that set a record for crowd noise. They boxed as professionals, with Taylor edging the decision, winning unanimously but by one point on two judges' cards. That pro world title fight took place in 2021 without spectators due to the coronavirus pandemic. Spreaker This content is provided by Spreaker, which may be using cookies and other technologies.

NCAA set to allow college athletes to bet on professional sporting events
College athletes could soon be allowed to bet on professional sporting events.On Wednesday, the NCAA’s Division I Administrative Committee approved a proposal allowing players to bet on pro sports. Current NCAA rules prevent players from placing any sports bets at all. If approved by the Division II and Division III governing bodies, the rule change would go into effect on Nov. 1.“The Administrative Committee was clear in its discussion today that it remains concerned about the risks associated with all forms of sports gambling but ultimately voted to reduce restrictions on student-athletes in this area to better align with their campus peers,” Illinois athletic director and committee chair Josh Whitman said in a statement. “This change allows the NCAA, the conferences, and the member schools to focus on protecting the integrity of college games while, at the same time, encouraging […]
