The Poker Brat rubbed elbows with Elon Musk and Draymond Green while taking Vegas by storm
Phil Hellmuth, the poker champion known for his record 17 World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelets, recently marked a milestone in an extravagant fashion. Although his 60th birthday isn’t until July 16, the Poker Brat decided to kick off the celebrations early with a lavish event in Las Vegas.
The festivities began on May 9, as Hellmuth arrived from California, ready to immerse himself in a weekend packed with poker and partying. The celebration, dubbed the ‘Las Vegas Billionaire Bash,’ was a testament to Hellmuth’s larger-than-life persona and his impact on the world of poker.

It wasn’t just a birthday party; it was a gathering of some of the most influential figures in business and entertainment, including an appearance by tech mogul Elon Musk and NBA star Draymond Green. The event was a blend of luxury and leisure, with Hellmuth participating in a high-stakes poker cash game that featured prominent players and businessmen alike.
Hellmuth’s presence at the PokerGO Studio for the filming of High Stakes Poker was a highlight, where he was joined by the likes of Chamath Palihapitiya, Jeffrey Housenbold and Stanley Tang. In another tweet, Hellmuth displayed his new wardrobe, including several Tom Ford items, before getting dressed in some new duds and heading out for his birthday dinner.
The Bestie Billionaire 60th Birthday Bash was more than just a party; it was a reflection of his journey, achievements and the friendships he’s cultivated over the years. The Poker Brat will be back in Vegas later this summer to participate in the WSOP series.
