Without a doubt the better player for me is Phil Hellmuth. He has won so many WSOP titles that there is no basis for comparison. His demeanor in dealing with bad luck is endearing. So for me, Phil is a legend. Of course Bryn Kenny made a lot of money in a short time. He is said to have won $65 million from various tournaments. Let's also remember his poker tournament victory when he won $20 million from a tournament in 2019. Bryn Kenny made a lot of money in a short time and he's a great player too but Phil remains a legend to me
Brynn was also a HSMTT player online and did quite well.
How about this for comparison... who are each of these players competing against when winning money/titles?? Phil does great against a wide range of players and tends to play in tournaments that attract the greatest number of recreational players (donkeys... & 'northern Euro donks' < Phil's words),... whereas Brynn competes vs. the very BEST High Stakes MTT players in the world! (a player pool that Phil Helmuth very rarely swims in, knowing he doesn't have an edge in those fields).
Clearly it would need to say 'what defines being the best'?
Wayne Gretzky scoring 80 goals a year while competing amongst the Top NHL players of all time.... OR
Steve Hanson (#17 from Charleston Chiefs) scoring hundreds of goals in many local bar leagues & Junior hockey association?
Steve Hanson is clearly the winner? Maybe not...
