In Round 1, back in March, Hellmuth won the $100,00 duel thanks to a wild comeback. He trailed at one point by more than 19-1 in chips, but won a series of double-ups en route to his fourth consecutive victory on the show, which airs on the PokerGO app. The first three matches, in 2020, were against Antonio Esfandiari, who waited years to beat the 15-time WSOP bracelet winner in a heads-up match, but failed miserably in doing so.

In the first round, each player bought in for $50,000, creating a $100,000 prize pool. Hellmuth won quite a grueling marathon match that lasted six hours. During that match, the “Poker Brat” bounced back from a massive deficit. At one point, he had just 3,000 of the 100,000 chips in play. But somehow, some way, “White Magic” almost always finds a way to come out ahead.
