Poker Champ Crashes Car

Poker super star Phil Hellmuth was driving a race car with his own image on its back from a promotional event when he crashed into a concrete pole in the parking lot of the Rio Hotel and Casino, where he was slated to appear a few hours later in the Main Event of the World Series of Poker. Online video shows the car smashing into the pole and then Hellmuth walking around, seemingly unhurt. The car's front end was badly smashed. Hellmuth's participation in the Main Event of the WSOP is at the moment uncertain.
