After Day 1 of the 2013 WSOP Main Event, I’m happier than I should be for simply making Day 2.  The day got off to a late start, but I was able to rally to finish STRONG!  Check out Bluff Magazine’s blow-by-blow recap of the proceedings below…

Phil Hellmuth Runs Up Big Stack Late on Day 1C of 2013 WSOP Main Event

The 2013 WSOP Main Event would be incomplete without Phil Hellmuth. The 13-time bracelet winner and 1989 World Champion has not matched his 2011 and 2012 performances at the World Series of Poker, but that’s understandable. Hellmuth finished second in the WSOP Player of the Year race the last two years, winning bracelet number 12 in Vegas in the summer of 2012 and getting number 13 in style by taking the WSOP Europe title.
