Phil Hellmuth’s Las Vegas mansion is up for sale, but there’s a mystery

The ‘Poker Brat’ tries again with great fanfare.

After an apparently unsuccessful attempt a few years ago, Phil Hellmuth has put his Las Vegas mansion up for sale again.

It’s an iconic venue for poker, but there’s been no shortage of controversy across the internet, and there are even those who have raised a little yellow.

The social ad

Hellmuth announced the sale of his villa with a tweet on Twitter.

“I bought this home in Las Vegas Country Club – great location. I’ve never lived there, but I’ve been there for the WSOP and other long trips to Vegas. Now I’m selling it for $525,000. Interested parties please contact Karina Jett.”

The real estate agent of choice has a poker connection: Karina Jett has over half a million dollars in live winnings on Hendon Mob.

The Villa

Turning to the details of the villa, we can say that it has an area of ​​1,672 square feet (approx. 155 m2) and is classified as a “3 bedroom vintage home, built in 1974” at 2909 Bel Air Drive, just off is admission to the Las Vegas Country Club.

It has a panoramic view of the second green of the golf course with the Strip as a backdrop, a bedroom with a terrace, a swimming pool and a two car garage. It’s a historic spot for poker in its own right: Phil Hellmuth was immortalized on the property’s patio in a World Series commercial that later became an icon on the ESPN channel.
