Far off, absolutely not. Still somewhat off though. I might be mistaken here, but isn't all of Hellmuths bracelets NLHE and all of Ivey's non-NLHE? Sure, Hellmuth is still a very elite level mixed games player and Ivey is a very elite level NLHE player, but the discrepancy between the poker forms they hold bracelets in is hard to discount imo.
(edit: when I speak of NLHE in this post, I'm talking about the large field low(er) buyin ones)
