    Date: 2012.07.05 | Category: Poker | By: Phil Hellmuth   

    After winning my 12th World Series of Poker bracelet, I wanted to give back to you all with a fun contest. I encouraged all of you to share your best poker moments for a chance to win one of 12 brand new hats from my Poker Brat line, and the response was incredible! There were a lot of great tales of poker conquests, but I had to narrow it down to 12 winners.

    Without any further ado, the winners are…
    •    LMD1982, who walked away with $3,500 at their first live tournament.
    •    Katie Kelley, who put a stop to heckling with a winning hand.
    •    Shlem, who rode on a roller-coaster of emotions that ended with a tournament win.
    •    Some Guy, who was thankful to the “poker gods” for helping him win an online tournament.
    •    Vel, who was playing well enough to hold the entire poker room’s stock of $25 chips.
    •    Lolpiggy, who may not have won a lot of money, but learned the power of following instincts.
    •    tunsky107, who played his best hand against an opponent who was trying to bust him.
    •    Chad Kunz, who won close to $1,000 in a single day of Full Contact Poker playing.
    •    HOOCH21, who turned $120 into $700 after watching one of my DVDs.
    •    theharv19, who lost his poker hand but gained confidence.
    •    Anthony D, who beat his poker-playing friend for the first time.
    •    SturtSan, who won with a two pair during a blind hand.
