Tipsy Phil Hellmuth Takes Up Acrobatics

Poker pro Phil Hellmuth is alive and running after his wild trapeze stunt a couple of nights ago. It seems that the poker brat had a few too many drinks at the MGM’s Studio 54 and decided to take up acrobatics.

Hellmuth’s Twitter read:

"UB party starting at Studio 54 at MGM! On my way, i am making my entrance on a trapeze!! also i signed up for 2-7 tourney, c em a 11 pm."

Full House says: Shucks, I wish I could have seen the performance. I guess the guy is just having some fun. He’s had a lot of bad luck at this year’s WSOP so a little loosening up is probably healthy for his poker game. Oh, and I love Hellmuth’s idea for his 2009 WSOP Main Event entrance. Very nice!
