CardsChat Short Stacks: Phil H. continues his quest for another bracelet and more!

[Shells]

Phil Hellmuth Jr. has been unable to snag his 18th wsop bracelet during the 2024 series, but not for lack of trying. His best 2024 WSOP finish is 4th, in the $1,500 Mixed PLO Hi-Lo 8, Omaha Hi-Lo 8, and Big O event. Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course, near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, closed its poker rooms due to the COVID pandemic in 2020 but plans to reopen once they hire 30 dealers. If you are a hockey fan, you will know that the finals for the Stanley Cup are well underway with the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers (in Sunrise, Florida). Given the six-hour flight between cities, there is a lot of time to think of ways for teammates to deal with the lengthy trip. As CBS News states, there is a lot of Mario Cart and poker going on. While Edmonton players are generally drawn to Mario Cart, the Florida players gravitate to poker. In fact, the Panthers have two tables set up for Seven Up and poker.

He's fantastic at playing poker but when he loses, especially if it's due to a move that he considers strange from his opponent, he gets really nervous!
