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.

5 big questions for the Red Sox: Can they re-sign Alex Bregman? How much are they willing to spend?
Christmas is a week away, and the Boston Red Sox have yet to sign a free agent to an MLB deal. Only one other club, the Colorado Rockies (and their brand-spanking-new front office), has been similarly passive on the open market. But even though chief baseball officer Craig Breslow hasn’t handed out any contracts, he has still been quite a busy man.The Sox have conducted six trades, bringing 11 new players into the organization. Not all the transactions have been of the blockbuster variety, but Boston has boosted its pitching corps with two big NL Central swaps, acquiring hurlers Sonny Gray and Johan Oviedo.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementBut have the Red Sox actually gotten any better? Is the 2026 club positioned to win more games and journey deeper into October than the 2025 version?That’s a big question, one impossible to answer until we can […]

What if Kalen DeBoer, Alabama lose to Oklahoma in the CFP?
Along the west side of the Walk of Champions that leads to Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa stand five massive statues honoring the head coaches who have won national championships at Alabama. They have victory in common, and they have something else, too: None of them took very long to claim their titles.

Such are the peaks and valleys that await every Alabama head coach.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAfter missing the inaugural 12-team playoff a year ago, DeBoer and Alabama limped into this year’s bracket and face Oklahoma in the CFP’s first game […]

Micah Parsons’ absence will impact Packers vs. Bears, beyond dramatically: ‘Our whole game plan was centered around him’
In a vacuum, perhaps Ben Johnson’s statement was believable.The Chicago Bears head coach sought this week to downplay the season-ending ACL tear to edge rusher Micah Parsons ahead of the Packers’ Saturday night visit to Chicago.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement“Just because one player goes down, that doesn’t mean that this is going to change a whole lot for them,” Johnson said Wednesday. “I know everyone wants to make it about the one particular player, but this is a very good defense, regardless of who’s on the field for them.”No one is arguing Parsons was the only talent on a Packers defense ranked eighth in scoring and sixth overall. But for 14 prior games this season, coaches and players across the league have indeed insisted that Parsons was a game-changer and a force on his own.“You’ve just got to be hyper-aware of where he is,” […]
