TWO YEARS IN A ROW
A reader alerts me of the content presently at phil hellmuth's web site:

For a second year in a row, Phil Hellmuth makes it to the Tournament of Champions final table.

Talk about your back-to-back performances!

Year One: Ten (invited) players total. Phil surprisingly manages not to go out 11th. ONE FINAL TABLE IN A ROW.
Year Two: Phil fails to qualify for the event. A lifetime of acting like an idiot makes him sufficiently attractive to a sponsor that he is allowed to play anyway at a direct EV cost to everyone else in the tourney. But it's not enough to acquire $250,000 at the expense of others who qualified fairly. No, let's brag about it. TWO FINAL TABLES IN A ROW.

Phil Hellmuth walks away with a slick $250,000. Not bad for a couple of days work.

Hey, Dennis Kozlowski walked away with a lot more than that for even less work. Not bad! Maybe Phil should use the money to throw this kind of party for his wife. God knows after being married to Phil for this long she must have earned it.

I found this on phil's home page. Is there any chance someone besides phil conceived of this banner?
