Registration closed at the end of the 30-minute dinner break, and the final few players are filing into the Pavilion Room. One of those players is 13-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth, who just strode in decked in all black as usual.

Along with his all-time record of 13 bracelets, Hellmuth has over $17.8 million in career earnings. In 1988 he won his first live tournament, taking down a $200 Pot of Gold event in Reno, and a year later he won the Main Event. In 2012, Hellmuth added numbed 12 in Event #18: $2,500 Seven Card Razz, and then he locked up number 13 in Cannes, winning the WSOPE Main Event.

We'll certainly keep our eyes on Mr. Hellmuth as he eyes number 14, and tries to extend his lead against Doyle Brunson, Johnny Chan, and the rest of the multiple bracelet winners.
