Few would argue that Phil Hellmuth is the G.O.A.T. of the World Series of Poker (WSOP). But Bryn Kenney doesn’t think the “Poker Brat” is that great overall as a poker player.

Kenney, who holds the record for live tournament cashes at $67 million, according to The Hendon Mob, appeared on the Digital Social Hour Podcast with Sean Kelly. The New York poker pro addressed a handful of topics, including losing $3.5 million, drama in the poker world, and the Poker Hall of Fame.

The nine finalists return to battle at 6:00 p.m. GMT on September 24 to play for that gargantuan first-place prize and a coveted WSOP bracelet.

GGPoker guaranteed to pay out $25 million in the Main Event, but it will dish out $29,193,500 thanks to 6,146 entries spread across 17 flights. That prize pool is so vast that each of the nine returning players has already locked in more than half a million dollars, and the top six finishers will become millionaires.
