Phil Hellmuth Interview – Part 2 of 4
We continue our interview with Phil Hellmuth which took place only days ago from his suite in Las Vegas during the WSOP.
If you missed it part one of the interview you can watch it here.
In this video, Hellmuth discusses his appearance in the “Sex Room” video and if any rap mogul lifestyle activities are in his future, as well as telling a story about two big celebrities he had dinner with during a recent tournament dinner break. He also reveals some of the secrets behind his amazing last power and what it takes to survive as a poker pro for over 20 years. Finally, he talks about some of the pitfalls of being a pro poker player and what he does to give his life deeper meaning away from the tables.
Parts 3 and 4 of the interview will be posted later this week. Hellmuth has 11 World Series of Poker bracelets to his name and is affectionally known as the “Poker Brat” by his fans.

- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".
- CHECK RAISE - To check initially, then raise a bet made later on in the same betting round. Frequently a sign of strength, but may be a bluff.
- SUITED - Two or more cards all the same suit. Ant: OFF-SUIT.
- STRING BET - An unethical and often illegal means of raising whereby a player puts a call-size stack of chips into the pot and, after observing the reactions of the players, then goes back to his stack and puts out more, thus raising.
- MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
