Poker pro Phil Hellmuth is so big time that he is participating in a fundraiser on ifonly.com that will allow one fan of the “Poker Brat” to have a single drink with him in Las Vegas.
The price tag? A whopping $16,700.
The advert states: “Have a drink with Phil as he poses for photos and signs autographs, then talk to him about what it’s like to be back at the main event that he famously won in 1989.”
The encounter, if purchased by someone, will take place sometime during the WSOP.
Now, the money will be going to charity, but still—$16,700 to have a drink with the 13-time bracelet winner while he’s distracted taking photos with other fans?
According to the “fine print,” fans interested in the $16,700 drink date may be subjected to a background check before getting the chance to spend time with Hellmuth.
