Phil Hellmuth is all set to be joined by a new set of poker stars like Dan Harrington after the 2010 Poker Hall of Fame nominees was announced. Considered one of the biggest honors in poker, the next step of the process will now involve the 16 living members of the Hall, as well as a panel of 17 media personnel, getting together to choose the eventual winner.

Created in 1979 by Benny Binion, the exclusive Poker Hall of Fame boasts 38 players and includes such legends of the game as Johnny Moss, Nick the Greek, Wild Bill Hickok, Doyle Brunson, Chip Reese, Stu Unga, and Phil Hellmuth.
