Hellmuth vs. Negreanu, and the $10,000 bracelet bet

Leave it up to Doyle Brunson to stir the pot. Texas Dolly recently posted a challenge on Twitter, looking for takers in a bet on who would win more WSOP gold bracelets this year between Phil Hellmuth and Daniel Negreanu. His tweet found quite a few responses, with a definite divide between the pro-Hellmuth and pro-Negreanu camps.

Last week, Brunson tweeted, “Of course all the Daniel haters that say the little guy is a terrible player, pick someone against him to win bracelets this year. 100k max.” He posted the tweet after Negreanu took to the social media platform and discussed his performance following Day 1 of the Super High Roller Bowl (SHRB) at the Aria in Las Vegas.
