5x hands from Hellmuth’s home game.

I love this show because there is no commentary. It’s so good!

Jennifer Tilly keeps the table lively on Day 1 of Hellmuth’s Home Game, trading quips with Texas Mike and surviving Jungleman’s stare.

It’s Reno, so anything can happen, including a few hands Phil Hellmuth will definitely complain about later.

Jennifer Tilly is having a moment at Hellmuth’s Home Game, stacking up chips while the rest of the table wonders if Reno has a mercy rule.

Apparently, no one told her this was supposed to be a friendly game. Meanwhile, Phil Hellmuth is still searching for his lost luck—and maybe his dignity.

Hellmuth’s home game is back on stream, and Rampage is looking for redemption after what he calls the worst session of his life.

The lineup is a who’s-who of recognizable faces: Chalie Hook, Xuan Liu, Kelly Minkin, Stanley Tang, Jungleman, and Phil Hellmuth himself.

Feel we can all relate to this 🤣.
