After finishing 2^nd in three World Series events so far including the prestigious Players Championship, Phil Hellmuth’s odds of winning the 2011 WSOP were now at 35 to 1 at William Hill (US players prohibited).

Hellmuth, the 11 time World Series of Poker bracelet record holder, continued to be deprived of his 12^th bracelet heading into the Main Event, which kicks off in just days.

He is in the running for the World Series of Poker Player of the Year, and it is difficult to see how he wouldn’t achieve that status after what has been a brilliant performance.

Hellmuth has already won more than $1.6 million at this year’s WSOP even before the main event kicked off.
