2009 World Series of Poker Main Event Final Tablist Jeff Shulman, announced recently in an article on CardPlayer.com, that he has signed 11-time WSOP bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth to coach him for the finale of his Main Event run.

Shulman, who already has more experience than most of this November's final nine- including a previous WSOP Main Event final table in 2000- reportedly chose Hellmuth for his similar playing style and unique way of thinking about the game. 

The coaching, which will most likely be fairly informal given the two's long time friendship, will primarily take place online through the use of skype, but should also include a short 3-to-4 day intensive boot camp sometime in October.
