Watch Phil Hellmuth take the ice bucket challenge

In today's Daily Rewind Phil Hellmuth joins the ice bucket challenge and Daniel Colman explains his ONE DROP reaction.

Hellmuth cools down

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is currently sweeping the globe with celebrities such as Bill Gates, Justin Bieber and Robert Downey Jr. dumping freezing cold water over their heads in aid of charity.

Now, this wave of water-fuelled benevolence has flowed into the poker community and one of the first pros to take up the challenge and raise some money for sufferers of Lou Gehrig's disease was Phil Hellmuth.

After prompting viewers to make a donation, the Poker Brat called out the WSOP's Ty Stewart, Antonio Esfandiari and Daniel Negreanu who must all now complete the challenge within 24 hours.

With the formalities out of the way, Hellmuth then dumped the icy water over his head, much to the delight of those watching behind the camera.

Colman doesn't care

Following his muted appearance on ESPN last week, Daniel Colman has explained why his reaction to winning $15 million was somewhat unusual.

After watching the broadcast, the US pro made the following statement via his Twitter account: "I do not care about poker".

Despite applauding Lon McEachern and Daniel Negreanu's efforts to explain why he acted in such a way - basically that he is still young - Colman is resolute in his beliefs that poker simply serves as a "distraction".

Likening it to other social endeavours that take away focus from "things that matter", Colman would prefer that people at the bottom were given a chance to get to the top, instead of being forced to idolise those that are already there.

Whether you agree with Colman's point-of-view or not, there's no doubt that he has a unique approach to being a WSOP champion.

I find it to be a much greater accomplishment (and necessary) if thru solidarity, we can get everyone at the bottom to all move up...

I misrepresented myself before when I said I didn't want to speak to media because of poker being a harmful game. I do not care about poker

Tony G gets married

We might be used to seeing him say "I raise", but Tony G recently said "I do" to AistÄ— ŠlapokaitÄ—.

The fiery poker pro, who's now a force in the political world, was married in Vilnius, Lithuania, last week in front of friends and family.

Looking a lot more laid back than usual, Mr. G not only committed himself to the love of his life but urged everyone to never stop searching for "the one".

Commenting on his relationship, Tony said:

"I have searched for my better half for a long time and finally found her in my home country. We have tested each other during our two-year relationship, and I can easily tell that my wife is a wonderful person".

Following the ceremony, a selection of family and friends made their way to Tony Resort (near Lithuania's former capital, Trakai) for an evening of drinking and dancing.

Question of the Day

"Do you believe that Daniel Colman really doesn't care about poker given that he's made it his profession for the last few years?"

High Stakes Corner

Sebastian Ruthenberg emerged as Sunday's biggest winner after scooping $395,207. The impressive haul was almost $200,000 more than his closest rival, Alex Kostritsyn, who put in a strong performance against Gus Hansen.

Indeed, it was Hansen who fell to the biggest loss in the last 24 hours after an unsuccessful 2,570 hands left him with a $447,256 hole in his ever-fading bankroll.

Daily Signoff

Poker and women are both a part of Dan Bilzerian's and Phil Ivey's lives, but in this recent tweet we can see that the two ballers don't roll in quite the same way.

We both love poker & women👯👯👯👯 @DanBilzerian pic.twitter.com/ZhKY3NMx0i
