Phil Hellmuth is highly recognized in the pro poker circle for two main reasons. First, the quantity of victories he has secured in broadcasted competitions like the yearly World Series of Poker events. Second, his behaviors at the poker table that have given him the moniker of ‘The Poker Brat’. Phil has consistently been open to providing (frequently derogatory) suggestions to others on the right way to play No-Limit Texas Hold’em.
Dusty Schmidt, with the help of Paul Christopher Hoppe, has written a book called “Don’t Listen To Phil Hellmuth”. The book thoroughly examines and corrects some of the most misguided advice given by Phil Hellmuth and other TV poker commentators, self-proclaimed experts, and bracelet-winning champions. This comprehensive 360-page guide corrects fifty instances of poor poker advice that have been directed towards beginners. Packed with examples and illustrations, “Don’t Listen To Phil Hellmuth” is insightful, informative, and extremely accessible to new poker players. It is a must-read for anyone aspiring to enhance their skills and eventually compete against Phil Hellmuth and his peers in a World Series of Poker event or a World Poker Tour Tournament.
