Phil Hellmuth Dresses Like a Baby

Somehow this story slipped under the radar, but we caught up with it. Apparently, Phil Hellmuth lost a prop-bet to Jessica Dawley which resulted in an interesting development.

First out of "Poker Night in America" sit and go, so @JessicaDawley chooses something for me to wear. What though? A wig, a hat, a toga?

Phil Hellmuth may have lacked imagination, but Jessica certainly did not as she visited a local store to go hunting for appropriate costume. After some searching she found exactly what she was looking for, and Hellmuth appeared on the next set of “Poker Night in America” dressed as – a baby.

How appropriate for a man dubbed ‘Poker Brat’. This, of course, caused an avalanche of delight on Twitter amongst numerous Hellmuth’s friends and followers. Phil Ivey was one of those who took special delight of the other Phil’s “sufferings”, but Doyle Brunson chimed in as well, wondering how much Ivey would ask for to wear the same outfit.

Hellmuth took it like a sport and laughed along, but Two Plus Two forum have recently taken the matter into their hands, with one simple line, that most frequent visitors know the meaning of – photoshop potential. What will become of these already hilarious photos, I don't even dare speculate, and wouldn’t want to get anyone’s hopes too high, but it could turn out quite epic. It wouldn’t be the first time!
