Hellmuth: I am unstoppable when I'm in the zone

2010-04-06 15:36:53

Phil Hellmuth has claimed no one can defeat him when he is playing his best tournament poker.

The 11-time World Series of Poker bracelet champion said it was this kind of talent that enabled him to make the final table of the recent Bay 101 Shooting Star event.

A World Poker Tour (WPT) competition, it saw Hellmuth eliminated first in the televised last stage, but he claimed the extra work he has been putting into his game is paying off.

"When I am on form ... in a no-limit hold'em tournament, I am almost unstoppable," he remarked. "I have been working super hard on my poker game."

The pro said he was able to get as far as he did through a combination of good reads, tight strategy and his ability to slow-play high pairs.

Hellmuth is yet to win a WPT title, although he has reached the final table on a number of occasions.
