Sexy, dark, brooding at times, temperamental on other occasions....likes fine dining restaurants, hanging out with celebrities, very big hands (er..ego).  Going rate: $16,700 a night.

A good escort might go for over $1,000 an evening. 

Phil Hellmuth?

Yep, he’s charging $16,700.

Oh, and you won’t even get the sex!

It’s just dinner…..but alas, you do get to meet one of the greats in the world of poker.  Actually, there is an argument to be made that Hellmuth is the greatest, having amassed the largest number of World Series of Poker bracelet wins (13).

The posted ad below says it all.

Show Your Hand: Meet Phil Hellmuth at the World Series of Poker Tournament

Meet Phil Hellmuth, a legend of the WSOP, at the very arena that made him famous. In this incredible experience, you will get to hang out with Phil at the WSOP tournament in Las Vegas. Have a drink with Phil as he poses for photos and signs autographs, then talk to him about what it's like to be back at the Main Event that he famously won in 1989. Phil will be looking to add to his record 13 WSOP bracelets, and you could be there to ask him all about it. This is a rare chance to meet the "Poker Brat" himself, a man whose colorful personality and prowess at the tables have made him one of the most popular players in the world. Scheduling will take place between May 27th and July 14th, 2014 in Las Vegas at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino.

The $16,700 price tag appears below the ad.

And, yes, Hellmuth for a night will cost you more than it would to purchase a brand new Ford Fiesta or Mitsubishi Mirage.
