Phil Hellmuth's last hand in the 1999 WSOP

YouTube - Poker: Phil Hellmuth Eliminated From The 99 WSOP

Some things never change.

LOl I can understand Phil there .. but he should let those players play as bad and dont citisise them because at the end on long term he is the guy winning big money

Seriously, how has this guy never been bashed at the table?

why he cry,...he lose a 60/40 not more

Yes, when he complains like that he helps other people improve their games strengthening the competition. He should keep his mouth shut and walk away, then he can tell his bad beat stories to the people who care.

I think I'd rather see Hellmuth than Tony G. at the tables.

YouTube - Worst Attitude In Poker

Yea, Tony G. is just an ass.. Totally inappropriate (?? the german wrote it correct?? )

What I find so interesting in the whole Hellmuth "thing" is, that in his book (yea, I read some chapters..) is a whole chapter about "poker etiquette" When I read this, I really thought an other Phil wrote it.. lol

I think I would be annoyed too, being knocked out of a tournament that had cost me $10,000 to enter.

Tony G is absouletly disgraceful.

It sickened me to watch him attack and badger his opposition like that, especially after he took the pot down.

I agree.

Agreed.. Id rather play with helmuth

Tony G was absolutely correct about that hand. The fact he was talking so much when he completed the blind and him saying he'll call a re raise or even go all in. just why on earth are you even raising with kj? see the flop and evaluate from there. I've never raised from the BB without a pp or ace, unless my opponent constantly limps. Maybe the whole "go back to russia" thing was a little much, but it is good for tv poker. more ratings

Calling with KJ there was a terrible move, but Tony G took it a little too far.

I love it when you watch old poker videos and it looks like they hosted the tournaments in the ballroom at the Holiday Inn next to the airport.

wow Hellmuth really took that bad, and that other video with Tony G., omg! I have never seen that guy play before, what a loudmouth ass, someone should have punched him. lol

Cause Phil Hellmuth is about 6 foot 6 inches. He may not come across as a big guy on TV, but I've seen him in person, and I don't think most people would feel like tussling with someone that size.

Indeed, I do recall him on PAD chatting about a fight of sorts he had in the 80's or early 90's with some old guy though ( who I think was also playing in the same PAD ) Something about them both going outside and rolling on the sidewalk for a while or something lol.

I think it was Sam Grizzle. Or at least they mentioned that once during one of the WSOP broadcasts.

sometimes phil can get outta hand. but thats him ya know.........thats why he is the poker brat. i still respect him though.

I don't really understand whenever Hellmuth starts ranting after he gets sucked out. I mean sure, you can play a hand perfectly and still lose. That's part of the game. He's a professional, yet every single time he gets so frustrated. I don't know if that's part of his game to try and get under his opponent's skin (to pretend like he's on tilt), but still it's a little classless. Like Lebron. Kidding about that last part.

damn! why are they acting like that? they are overreacting. so annoying.

phil is an idiot if you ask me
poker can be won with any 2 cards it dont matter if its your last chips or not

toney g needs to get fined if a professinal football player taunts another like that they do why not him
he could of very easily lost as well neither hand was that great
but he really should get fined

Amen. I realize you would get kicked out of a casino and prolly be banned or something if you whoped Phils ass but I want to see a video of someone waiting for him outside in the parking lot and teaching him how to play some different kind of hands.

Tony G is just as bad as Phil. He points out that KJ was a horrible call but putting the majority of your stack on the line with A2 thats a freaking awesome play as well.

I went to a Q&A session with the Devilfish at the Oxford Union not too long ago and somebody asked him about TV poker, how it's produced, who plays for the cameras etc.

And Devilfish ranted for about 5 minutes on Tony G, saying how when the cameras are rolling he comes out and plays it up for them but he's totally mute when the cameras are away.

I'd like to see how Tony would react if he lost that hand, he wasn't a massive favourite, although he got his opponent on tilt nicely it seems (or is he just a fish)

I also know how Hellmuth feels, played in a live 200 man rebuy sunday, and some drunk guy re raised my button raise (I had KK) with A9, I push all in (he previously re raised an all in with 55 and caught a 5 on the river a few hands back), turns the ace, and I stand up few obscenities, call him a donkey and that he wont cash We were the 2 big stacks on the table, and after knocking me out he was probably chip leader, prob about 30 left at this stage, and he finished 10th, getting £100 only in a 10k PP (Winner took nearly 3k)

wow this tony G guy is a real asshole
his hand was not that much better than the KJ, it only gained a bigger advantage because they both had the same suit, but he couldnt know that before they went all in.
my guess is that he does that to put players on tilt, ugly tactic but i guess it works.

Hellmuth and Tony G just make watching poker that much more fun. These guys crack me up with their antics and rants on other players.

doesnt everyone say dont talk down upon the fish for the fish will leave...

WOW. I dont know if it would end well if someone was ripping into me like Tony G. was.

IMO He should be put on the Bench.

What's worse than a sore loser?

A sore winner.

This guy makes me consider becoming a fan of Phil Hellmuth.

On a side note, I watched Phil in the 2009 Heads-Up Championship, and he handled himself pretty well. He wasn't hesitant to give props to his opponents that he defeated, and although disappointed, he handled himself pretty well when he was defeated.

the link doesnt work anymore it was took down, anyone know any other links where i can watch the video?

No clue. I didn't even know people had posted in this thread recently until yesterday, lol.
