Phil Hellmuth The General

[VaderFin]

I'm not the biggest poker fan but I found this to be pretty funny and ridiculous.

Here comes Phil making his entrance to this years tourney:




And then they go and put him at the table with, Chuck. You know people were hoping he would break his neck.

Wonder how much Absolute Poker paid for that...

As to Phil, good player but horrible attitude.

[flotsamnjetsam]

What an idiot.

I don't dislike many poker players, but Hellmuth is by FAR my least favorite. The only other people that bother me are the people that scream at the top of their lungs when they win a pot. I can't wait to watch Hellmuth crash & burn this year.

[The Artful Dodger]

Hellmuth looks like Der Kaiser in that getup, but I do fancy that Aston Martin in the first pic as well as his girl scouts.

I don't catch up that much on poker tourneys but I also don't like Hellmuth. I don't mind a player being cocky or arrogant but Hellmuth is simply beyond that.

Hellmuth is a jackhole to the nth degree who whines like a toddler when the cards don't go his way or he's facing an aggressive better. I simply cannot stand this idiot and actually cheer when he gets knocked out of the tourney's. The other one I can't stand is Havad Kahn....the guy beats his chest when he wins.....total tool.

In an arena filled with tools of the century, these idiots still manage to stand out. I couldn't agree more

All his bitching and complaining has only helped to make him more of a celebrity though. I understand the Poker Bitch will be on the next Surreal Life with, among others, Carrot Top, Dabney Coleman and Randy "Macho Man" Savage. God what I would pay to see Savage drop an elbow from the top rope on Hellmuth's neck. Even better, drop the ringbell on his larynx like he did to Steamboat back in '86. That would shut his piehole for awhile.

Helped his poker game too. Some people would kill to knock him out of a tournament, or at least cripple him (chip-wise), so they chase ridiculous draws in order to try to do that (and lose, which winds up with Phil getting more chips).

I talked to Amarillo Slim heading out to this tourney today. He is one of the rudest people you will ever meet.

Yes. you might call him a master baiter. Hehehehe.
