lol lovin the title on this one.

Gutsy book title guys lol - can't wait to read it!

Can't wait to hear what Hellmuth has to say about this. lol

It looks like a great book. There is a long excerpt on his site. I will say that while Hellmuth makes a great target, you have to give the guy some credit. He has profited nicely from his role as the poker player everyone loves to hate.

I know Phil's an easy target... Still not crazy about the name of book though. I think Phil's done enough to earn a little more respect than this.

At least "Kill Phil" didnt mention last name?

Yeah well sounds like more ammo for him.. but i cant say jack he is a quality poker player and there is no denying that for anybody, its just his talk and his style that annoys people.

I hope you guys like it if you happen to give it a read. Thanks for the props!

Man it took me 2 years to get the 1900 points to get Dusty's first book on Pokerstars and now this. :/

Strictly from a marketing standpoint it's a great title. I can't say boo about Hellmuth as a player as he'd likely take me to the cleaners but I'm quite certain Dusty can say whatever he likes.

Probably have to pay money for this one as I don't want to wait two years for enough points.

Best of luck with it sales wise.

This just sounds like a great setup for the 2011 WSOP or even the National Heads-Up championships. Maybe a cage match heads-up between Dusty and Phil on pay-per-view?

LOL I agree, Phil has an annoying mouth and poker ediquet, but he'd kick my butt too.

Can we pay through Pokerstars or Full Tilt?

As Dusty's co-author, I'll be the one taking on any cage matches Phil challenges us to. Dusty will handle golf challenges - maybe get a taker for the million dollar golf/poker challenge?

Perhaps a Tag-Team Match. Dusty and GiantBuddha Vs. The Poker Brat and the Mouth... Id pay money for that one.

looks pretty interesting. Let us know when any CC reviews come out of this book?

You would kick his Butt Blindfolded Paul

Um...holy shit! When did Dusty join?! Taking a year off royally screwed me...

Almost a year ago - he has almost 300 posts here now!

Omg, title is classic! I'm buying it just for that name alone!


I dunno, Phil has the height and weight advantage. I also heard he has a killer left jab! LOL

Here he is after a recent training session.
YouTube - Who punched the poker brat Phil Hellmuth?

Well he made a good profit just because of his tournament experience.
In cash games he's like a beginner . So yea give him credit but only at what he is good at...
#1 - acting like a DONKEY and pissing everyone off!
#2 - tournament experience

Anyways good title hopefully I'll find time to buy it and read it.

Table of contents looks awesome, tbh.

I plan on reading this soon - anyone seen if Phil has reacted to it?

Apparently he thinks no one should question the Michael Jordan of poker: http://www.gambling911.com/poker/gam...im-121010.html

Just preordered the printed version today. I'm expecting a lot so I really hope it lives up to it.

Looking forward to receiving my copy too. Hmmm... this might turn out to be the poker read of 2011.

LOL at both the writer and the comments on that story. Bunch of star-struck Phil lovers that don't seem to understand much about poker themselves.

Guess I'll be placing my order soon, but dang I've got like 5 poker books queued up that I haven't read yet, having put them off to read Dusty's and Paul's previous books! You guys are too prolific...

Gambling911 is a joke of a website anyway. Believe about 33% of what they report.

Haha...just wait til next year!

It's hysterical that they squeezed an entire article out of a single sentence he posted on his facebook page.

The book is actually gonna be my Xmas pressie to myself!

But, I have not read the book so I don't really have enough information to say for sure. I it would appear that Dusty is using the Phil Hellmuth's name to make greater sales.

I like them both, but it is so very obvious that Phil has accomplished much more "poker achievements" and "poker money earnings" than Dusty has at this point.

However, having said that, I don't really qualify to be critical of either or any poker pro.

My best, Wally

just...lol!

With respect to Phil's, well, respect...

Not to start another lengthy Phil thread since we've had at least a few, but I'll just say that while he certainly demanded respect for his game in it's day, he's really gone out of his way to try and lose that respect in the decade since his heyday. His skills have in no way kept up with the evolution of poker today.

I haven't gotten the new book yet, but I can only image some of the "tips" they point out. If you've never watched a Hellmuth DVD or some of his strategy clips on YouTube, please do so. There are some real gems -- be careful that you don't let Coke squirt out of your nose, though. I have a feeling this book is intended to set the record straight on some of those.

This^. Read the subtitle of the book. It's not just Phil, but "...a host of other 'world champs', TV commentators and other self-proclaimed experts" as well.

Probably a waste of time..but I posted in the comments section of that article defending Dusty's credentials. Most of the mouth breathers who posted there didn't seem to even know who Dusty is.

I have great respect for Phil's contribution to the game and the title does bother me a bit but Dusty is more than qualified to teach modern poker and the book looks wonderful.
